What are the best ones? Sitting on $6 in credits. Was thinking about the earth one series.
Batman Year One is great.
If The Dark Knight Returns is part of this deal, then that one too. That's really the one that kickstarted the graphic novel-type comics (there were ones before, but that's the one that really pushed it), they were the nicer format comics before the Trade PaperBack (TPB) reprints.
The Earth Ones for some of the characters were good, can't remember about the Batman ones.
Edit: I see someone else made the same two recommendations....

I would save the $6 for a movie or maybe a book purchase (one that you cannot borrow from Hoopla). Don't get me wrong. All of these comics are great but can also be had (from the convenience of your home) if you own a tablet and have a library card. Just my $0.02.

I think Court of Owls should be required reading for all Batman fans. It is in my Top 3 of modern-era Batman stories, along with Hush and The Long Halloween.
Unfortunately, I really, really, really dislike what Amazon did to Comixology. They shut down the storefront -- which was perfectly designed for searching and shopping for digital comics -- and integrated it into the Kindle store. And then they did a total redesign of the app and somehow made it 10x worse in terms of UI and UX. They took what was a pleasurable reading experience and turned it into a chore. /rant

I have a hard copy of DNR, but the rest I've either got through my library (physical media is still nice) or via Hoopla. I couldn't have read Gwenpool without Hoopla or paying for them. Hoopla is a really nice alternative, even if you can only check out so many items a month.

Year one, dark knight returns, killing joke IMO

Killing Joke, Dark Knight Returns, Court of Owls, Year One, Gotham by Gaslight but honestly a lot of the others are good reads too.

Court of Owls is a great story plus an even better deal for the what you get.
