Is it a stand alone book or do I have to read others to get it?

I have a few Star Wars novels under my belt but nothing compared to some people who read everything... Even with my limited knowledge this book is as user friendly as it gets..

As long as you've seen the 6 movies than youre golden.. It basically leads up ill the end of the Phantom Menace.....


Also im sure the novel Labyrinth of Evil fits in with this novel. Theyre are both written By James Luceno so its an easy fit..

I just finished Batman and the Mad Monk. That seriously has to be one of the lamest most half assed ending in comic book/story telling history. Wow that was dumb lol.

Anyone else read this before?

Have that one picked up but haven't read it yet. I read the one before that by Matt Wagner and that one had a shitty ending too.

Batman and the Monster Men? That ending looks like and Oscar winning compared to this one.

I actually enjoyed Monster Men for the most part.

That is pretty cool, so all the stuff that happen before 52 was introduced wasn't rebooted? The whole 52 thing still confuses me, has Hush made an appearance in it yet?
 
no Hush yet, pretty much the standard timeline with a few tweaks
 
Oh did anyone read the new Sandman comic? I was pleasantly surprised with how good it was, well I shouldn't be surprised it's Neil Gaiman, but it feels like he hasn't missed his step at all.
 
Another question about that Batman Timeline. So if Bane breaking Batmans back is still canon, does that mean Azrael still canon as well?

yet to be determined, I imagine DC will re-tell the Knightfall series

anyone reading Damian Son of Batman by Andy Kubert? Kubert's art in issue one was great, gave it a real gritty feeling to begin a series, story wise it's pretty standard Batman mythos stuff but entertaining still

there's one panel that Kubert drew and it's amazing, poster worthy

Trying to read Batman Absolution. Is it just me for is this one an absolute snoozer? I can barely get through this. I'm on page 30. Does it get better or should I just drop it.
 
blink man you're reading Batman stories that have pretty meh reviews from what I'm seeing, what makes you choose these titles? Just reading the premise? I chance some of those stories too from time to time

I'm just reading everything Batman atm. Giving everything a shot

Theres some stuff that I've really enjoyed. Definitely not this one. The art is kind of difficult to follow along with too.
