    Right now I'm not reading any Batman in singles, just trades, but I wanted to start reading in singles.

    I've always loved the detective side of Batman and so, as great as the main Batman book is, that's what I was thinking of starting. My question is how good is the current creative team on the book? Is it worth picking up as someone who loves the mystery-type Batman stories or is it not really good enough to justify buying it instead of the regular Batman book?

    Thew new team has brought back a large emphasis on the detective aspect of Batman's character, which has largely been absent in the N52. I think it's been excellent so far, and if you want a focus on more mystery and less action, then I would recommend it, otherwise for more action and whizbang (although IMO, less substance) you can check out the main Batman book.

    I love it! :D (but I read the floppies... I don't know how the TP reads, or if DC has collected the issues well. They're sometimes notoriously bad at that :P )
