Dude, they state in one of the previous issues that he's 6'7" and 320+ pounds, it's insane. I like Absolute Batman, but in an ironic kind of sense. It's like a take on old '90s EXTREME comics, but it is so ridiculous it's good. Not my favorite of the line, but I enjoy it's outlandisheness.

What's you favourite Absolute series? I just finished batman may go for Absolute Wonder Woman next

Wonder Woman and Martian Manhunter have amazing art and are must reads IMO. Superman is just okay and I’m having to force myself through flash and green lantern.

I feel the same but I'm pretty positive on Superman. It's definitely a step below Bruce and Diana, but it's trying to take on much bigger subjects politically which I appreciate even if it doesn't always land.

Wonder Woman is by far the best, closely followed by Martian Manhunter. Superman is a great read and I only put it third because Wonder Woman and Martian Manhunter are so damn good.
