I thought Death of the Family was also great but I felt the ending was a bit anticlimactic. Overall I preferred the Court of Owls story, it just had such a creepy cult feeling to it with th whole secret society and everything.
As for Morrison or Snyder, its tough because they're both quite different. Plus with regards to Batman Snyder only has a few story arcs whereas Morrison has been writing Batman for years, even going back to Arkham Asylum and Gothic. I think if I really had to make a choice it might be Morrison, just purely for the amount of work that's put into everything and the fact that he took all those old whacky stories from the past and found a way to, essentially, make them all viable and acceptable. That said, I have loved everything I've read of Snyder's so far, including Black Mirror and his Swamp Thing run.
How about you? Are you a Morrison fan? If so who would you pick between the two?
