    - I'd have to say that Greg Capullo is pretty good as well. Now if only this were the case with Snyder and we would have a half decent Batman run going on.

    - The art can be a bit scratchy at times, but it's pretty good overall.

    It's so hard to decide because all the best artists drew Batman in different costumes. Capullo is great drawing Batman in grey and black, but Jim Lee is just as good when he draws Batman in the Hush costume. Not to mention, Jim Aparo's art is so good it actually makes the grey and light blue look good. I think my favorite is Capullo though, seeing as it was his Batman art that got me into comics last year.

    Edit: Added my favorite scan. I randomly saw this scan somewhere, and I decided that I hadto read the rest of the story, which led to me becoming a comic fan!

    Jim Lee is by far the best, but that doesn't mean Greg Capullo isn't my favorite. Same story of Jim Lee drawing the best Superman, but Gary Frank is still my favorite. Capullo's style reminds me of Batman: the Animated Series, which will forever be king for me.

    I love both Greg Capullo and Andy Kubert.

    I just think Jim Lee is the best Batman artist ever.He makes Batman ao dark and realistic,and I like the little details,such as the cut bristles on his jaw,the backrounds etc.

    Greg Capullo. I always found Jim Lee's art to be sort of like statues, they seem to lack emotion. They are visual appealing and very detailed but almost emotionless, not alive.

    Learned to greatly appreciate all of the above, would like to add Fabok. There's nary a panel of his Batman Art I don't like, and his best are absolutely gorgeous.
