I'm pretty new to comics too, and I found that Batman: Year One is a good start to reading the Batman comics. Dark Knight Returns is also good, but if you're more interested in modern comics, starting with the Court Of Owls storyline is a good idea. It's part of the New Fifty-Two, a reinvention of the characters, so you won't need to know much continuity.
