The Beautiful Batman Comic DC Fans Somehow Missed

3. It Brought Batman Back To Basics

Between 2004 and 2015, to say that a lot happened to Batman would be putting things lightly.

It is perhaps why Europa has been somewhat overlooked, with the story itself having ignored pretty much every development that happened to the Dark Knight in the decade following the book's announcement. It's a stand-alone tale, one that gives way to a story which features a Bat of the past, one which we have now not seen, in any medium, for what feels like 20 years.

For long-time fans of the Caped Crusader, this is likely to make the book something of a nostalgia trip, with the Batman found here seeming to harken back to the lone warrior he was classically presented as - a major departure from the Dark Knight of today who spends his time with allies aplenty.

For newer readers though, this will simply be a chance to see a different take on Batman, making this a book friendly to all, free from the convoluted nature of comic book continuity.
