Considering the mixed bag that was New 52 in general, I barely could even remember the specifics of what made it great or bad because all I cared about was the main title and the accompanying Bat-related ones in the roster for that run. My gateway to Batman comics was during The New 52 when Scott Snyder became the head writer of the series.
