"Under the Hood" is pretty worthless without "A Death In The Family" though. And actually, without most everything from 1987-1991, also. Jason's return lacks any punch at all if you haven't read all the books that show Batman actually dealing with Jason's death in the first place. "A Lonely Place Of Dying", for instance, is essential.

It is indeed. But "A Death in the Family" is rather dated, what with Joker being the Iranian ambassador, et al. It's still good, just dated.
