Batman & Green Lantern: "Made of Wood"?

[K.A.N]

Well, I remember browsing through an issue of Detective Comics somewhere in 2003, noticing a story arc titled "Made of Wood" about a murderer who was out for James Gordon. The story featured Batman and Alan Scott (the WW2-era Green Lantern, who also lives in Gotham). I just mindlessly flipped through pages, but the story looked promising.

What made me interested is that it seems the story involves some of the Gotham's dark past (IIRC it was a murder that happened many years ago in Gotham).Too bad I didn't buy the issue, and didn't buy the subsequent issues either. :sad:

I've googled a bit, and all I found out is that the story ended in Detective Comics #786. Anyone knows more about this particular story arc? Is it available in Trade Paperbacks? Otherwise, where's the best place (on the net) to buy back issues of Detective Comics?

Howdy,

I'm pretty sure this story arc was never collected in a trade paperback. If you can't find the issues locally, Mile High Comics (http://www.milehighcomics.com/) should be able to hook you up with whatever issues you want. comiclist.com (http://comiclist.com/) usually notes when they're having sales, too.

Be aware that Mile High is dangerous. You'll have a nasty habit of buying lots more than you meant to once you see all the stuff they have available.

It's one of my very favorite Batman stories ever. I highly recommend you check it out.
