Batman: Haunted Knight

(I read this comic as content of "Batman by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale omnibus")
"Batman the haunted knight" is a comic written by the legendary Jeph Loeb and drawn by the incredible Tim Sale. This comic is actually separated in three independent chapters that were made for Legend of the dark knight Halloween specials in 1993, 1994 and 1995.
The first chapter is "Fears". In this story Batman fights Scarecrow while he starts having romantic feelings for a woman he met at one of his parties. This story focusses on the relationship between Bruce and Alfred but more importantly focusses on Bruce's fears and what makes him Batman. In this chapter Batman dives deep into his thoughts and he takes us with him.
The second chapter is "Madness". In this chapter Batman fights the Mad Hatter. A short guy who's obsessed with "Alice in wonderland" and kidnaps kids to take then in his crazy tea party. This story focusses on the relationship between commissioner Gordon and his daughter and also the relationship between Bruce and his now dead mom.
Chapter three is "Ghosts". This chapter is heavily based on "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens. In this story Batman is visited by three spirits. The first one is Poison Ivy, the second one is Joker and the third one is himself but dead. This story focusses in the relationship between Bruce Wayne and Batman.
For me this was a great Batman comic that dives deep into the character of Batman like almost no other. Personally I love both the writing of Jeph Loeb and the artwork of Tim Sale and I always enjoy to read any comic by them.
10/10
