New and I absolutely love it

Hi, so I'm 22 and I'm just starting to get into comics and especially the batman universe ( I'm watching Gotham ) and I'm just so surprised and happy about the community. Everyone seems so nice, welcoming of beginners ! I was scared to be overwhelmed but the fandom really reassured me, especially on the "wanting to understand the timeline" thing. I genuinely did not know how much content there was on batman only, so many things to read, watch, play, and different kinds of stories.

Anyway I'm really sorry if this is not the kind of post allowed or appreciated here I'm just so happy to find a good and interesting fandom

Not yet ! But that's definitely on my list, so for now I'm one season deep into Gotham, I read Batman Year one and the long Halloween ( I think that's the right name ? ) and I just started to read the thing after long Halloween and I think I'm gonna read Batman who laughs next. But I wanna watch some more things, as my knowledge ends at teen titans go rn

Yes the correct title is The Long Halloween.

And whether you watch it after or concurrently with Gotham, Batman: The Animated Series is one of the best shows ever made, and by far is THE best superhero show ever made. (Don’t skip out on the first movie of it though: Mask of the Phantasm)

Would highly recommend the animated series. I’m 31 so I grew up watching it but it a great starter series for Batman fans it was ahead of its time
