If it is not obvious, I am a huge Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale fan. Their combined work on Batman have produced some of the finest Batman stories around (Dark Victory, Long Halloween, etc). This is a superb collection of three individual short stories from the esteemed collaboration of Loeb and Sale.

Originally printed as three Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight Halloween Specials, they have been combined into one "halloween" themed collection. It is excellent!

The first story is "Fears" in which Batman fights the Scarecrow and has to travel a maze while poisoned by Crane's fear drug.

The second story is "Madness" and tells the story of how the Mad Hatter kidnapped Barbara Gordon, Jim Gordon's daughter.

The third and final story was my personal favorite "Ghosts" as it recreates the Christmas Carol, with Bruce Wayne as Scrooge; Thomas Wayne is the Ghost of Jacob Marley and Poison Ivy as Ghost of Christmas Past, Joker as Christmas Present and finally Batman as Christtmas Future. Well done!

A must have for any Batman fan. Loeb and Sale's Batman works are among my favorite Batman stories. Any reader of good comics and appreciative of good art will love this collection of three spooky stories set in Batman's world.
