I think for art and sentiment Good Evening Midnight and A Slaying Song Tonight are my favorites, but there is an incredible amount of talent and original takes in these pages. That being said, same rule applies as per regular Batman work, subject matter is largely dark, so I think I'll pace myself in picking up later volumes of this collection.
Definitely a noir flavour. An Innocent Guy is best exemplar for how twisted this collection gets. 1/2

Robotswithpersonality 2/2 Under the heading of collection is very much from the '90s:
Monster Maker: Yikes. White writer and artist drawing black thugs with what might be termed exaggerated stereotypical features and no redeeming qualities while Batman pontificates.
The Third Mask not exactly a shining example of neurodivergent rep.

Drama! Sorry about the eye, dude, but I'm glad they changed the ending. 🤷🏼‍♂️

The sheer amount of creative material that must be nixed by nervous publishers...dare we hope for the release of comics archives, once upon a dream?
