This week all I got for you is Batman: Dark Victory by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale. The story revolves around Batman's search for the serial killer Hangman who's crimes are similar the recently released Alberto Falcone, Holiday from The Long Halloween.
Pieces within the story besides grisly murder include Bruce Wayne's floundering early romance with Selina Kyle, a Halloween raid on Arkham Asylum, Bruce's adoption of Dick Grayson after the murder of his parents, and a retelling of his first appearance in costume as Robin.
One of the reasons I tracked this one down was because it and the Long Halloween have been being tossed around the internet as potential sequel material for The Dark Knight. The biggest issue I could see with adapting them is that they require a living Harvey Dent.
Now, out of the office and next time use a coaster.
