Matt Reeves remains hard at work on The Batman, a movie it's now becoming increasingly clear we probably won't end up seeing in theaters this decade. During a recent Q&A on Twitter, the filmmaker confirmed that he's still developing the project and was asked by a fan what his favourite comics are. 

Needless to say, his top picks will no doubt make fans very happy indeed, especially as there's a lot of great titles there and some fantastic creative teams. Unfortunately, Reeves has named such a wide variation of comic books that it's hard to say how they could end up inspiring his work on The Batman.

Still, there are worse titles he could have named and even if only one of these ends up inspiring the DC Comics adaptation, we're off to a very good start. What we do know is that Reeves isn't borrowing much from Ben Affleck and Geoff Johns' screenplay which would have heavily featured Deathstroke.
