Batman: Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth by Grant Morrison, Dave McKean
5.0
You'll either love this book or you're going to absolutely hate it. If you're one of those people that only read Batman because he trots around Gotham punching people in the throat, find another book. This is geared more towards the people that like the psychological aspect of Batman and the fact that he's just as psychotic as the criminals he fights.
Grant Morrison has discussed how the story in this book is essentially what Batman dreams every night. Someone as emotionally disturbed as Batman is going to have disturbing nightmares where he's not in control. I think the art of Dave McKean for this book accurately represents the nightmare to which Batman is experiencing.
