I’m reading Batman: Year 100 (issues #1 and #2 are out; #3 and #4 still on their way) and liking it a lot. The plot is sparse, and so is the linework — writer/artist Paul Pope has a style that’s half Frank Miller, half manga, and honestly a little Bob Kane-y too.

Here’s Wired’s interview with Pope; that’s what tipped me off to this series in the first place.

Bought my copies at SF’s incomparable Isotope.
