    Although I read a lot of Batman, I am not too familiar with Damien Wayne. A while ago I tried to read The Black Glove which I heard was the introduction of Damien but I did not like it at all. It has been a while so I may go back and check it out, though.

    I was just wondering where some of you recommend that I check out some stories to get a better idea of Damien. I've heard that Batman and Robin is a good series where Dick is Batman but I was curious if there was anything else.

    Thank you.

    First off, it's Damian* Wayne. And I'll list some good stuff:

    Batman and Son (grant Morrison run of batman, I believe starting somewhere around issue 655)

    Battle for the Cowl (not directly about Damian, but still good)

    Batman and Robin (grant Morrison, 2009)

    Teen Titans (2003 volume, I think issues 88 or 89-92)

    Batman and robin (Peter tomasi 2011)

    Batman Inc Vol 2 (grant Morrison 2012)

    Damian: Son of Batman (Andy Kubert 2013, miniseries set in what if future)

    Robin son of batman (Patrick Gleason 2015)

    He's had great appearances in other stuff too, but these are what I can recall off the top of my head. He's one of my favorite characters

    Damian Son of Batman was really bad. For essentials, go with:

    Batman and Son

    Grant Morrison's Batman and Robin

    Batman Inc

    Peter Tomasi's Batman and Robin

    Robin: Son of Batman

    @jtmac005: Perfect list.

    Batman Inc has to be read after Batman and Robin Grant Morrison and Batle for the Cowl. But also before Batman and Robin Reaquim (New 52).

    If you want a shorter list:
