Is "Batman Incorporated vol. 1" worth reading? I picked up the first issue of vol. 2 that came out recently, so should I still read volume 1? Also, what is the difference between the deluxe edition and the regular edition?

I think its always a good read. But not essential.

I liked Batman inc vol 1.

@sethysquare: Good. I haven't picked it up, but I'm getting the first issue of volume 2 today. I don't feel like playing 'catch-up'

You don't have to. You just need to know Batman went around setting up the Batman inc and found out that

But its still a pretty good read imo.

So it isn't necessary to understand volume 2 but it is a good story that I should read sometime?

You have to read it so you can have an idea what's going on now.

I would read it before, just because the end of vol.1 is so underwhelming to me. Just that last issue.

You should probably read it but I don't think it's essential.
