Batman (2016-): The Rebirth Deluxe Edition - Book 2 Kindle & comiXology
The Dark Knight has invaded his home, scarred his mind and broken his back. Now Bane has returned to Gotham City for a single purpose: eliminate the Batman once and for all. But first he’ll destroy everyone the Dark Knight has ever loved…or loathed.
In the wake of this battle, the Batman makes Catwoman an offer that leaves her absolutely speechless. As she considers her answer, the Dark Knight tells her of a secret war from early in his career. It was a time when The Joker and the Riddler would seemingly be natural allies, but each man determined that he and he alone must be the one to kill the Bat...and either would sooner burn down Gotham than be beaten to the punch line.
All of Gotham’s villains were forced to choose sides in this stunning battle of wits that quickly escalated into a full-blown war—complete with civilian casualties. In this “War of Jokes and Riddles,” only one side could claim victory...but the scars it left shaped Batman’s future.
Written by Tom King (Mister Miracle, The Vision) with art by David Finch (Wonder Woman), Mikel Janín (Grayson), Jason Fabok (Justice League), Mitch Gerads (The Sheriff of Babylon), Clay Mann (Action Comics) and more, this latest Rebirth Deluxe Edition features two of the most critically acclaimed arcs in modern comics in hardcover for the first time. Collects Batman #16-32 and Annual #1.

Book 2 starts with I Am Bane, what I believe has been the best story arc Tom King has given Bats so far. The story is driving, intense, and really gives the feeling of what is on the line in the freight train of Bane’s wrath. The story is only amplified by David Finch’s precise and intimidating artwork.
In the wake of Bane, there is a slight story departure as Tom King teams up with current Flash writer Josh Williamson for their mysterious Watchmen pre-Doomsday Clock crossover event, The Button. Similar to Night of the Monster Men in Book 1, only the contributing Batman issues are collected here. For the full story, you’ll have to get the collected volume for The Button, which comes with a swanky lenticular cover but is also not what I’m reviewing here. Jason Fabok shows himself as part of DC’s top echelon of artists.
Before getting into the final epic arc, Mitch Gerads (of Mister Miracle and Sheriff of Babylon notoriety) contributes his art to the stand-alone The Brave and The Mold. A mysterious death occurs and Swamp Thing emerges from the green to assist.
The War of Jokes and Riddles takes place in the past, around the time of Zero Year from Scott Snyder’s New52 run. The Joker and The Riddler are at odds, gathering other villains to their sides, and Batman is caught in the middle. Why is the Joker not laughing? What is weighing so heavy on Batman’s conscience? Bouncing between Clay Mann and Mikel Janín on pencils, this arc has its action moments but is driven more by motivations, drama, and regrets than the explosive adrenaline of I Am Bane.
Book 2 conclude with the few Christmas themed short stories from Annual #1, written by Tom King, Scott Snyder, Paul Dini, Steve Orlando, and Scott Bryan Wilson. King’s entry is the strongest of them, and subtle to the extent that even Bruce Wayne missed the point. Orlando’s story is interesting and amplified by Riley Rossmo’s unique art style. Keep an interested eye out for that teams work.
In conclusion, I like the ride Tom King is taking me on. All of this continues on the larger story that was set in motion in Book 1, which has me wanting more from Book 3.

King's run is best read (IMHO) in larger chunks - you can really see what he's doing with characters, plot and themes.
This volume lets you do that and the over sized format really lets the art shine.
Highly recommended.
