A new deluxe trade paperback edition of one of the most important and critically acclaimed Batman adventures ever, written by Frank Miller, author of THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS!

Summary: A subtely different take from a great artist
Comment: Definitely a different, almost noir feel to Batman, perhaps the star in this is Jim Gordon - who is also the most tainted in this newer approach.

A well told tale that might not be good for canon but definitely works here. These are men who are willing to compromise on some level in their battle for good, but Miller gives us a world where maybe that is the only way to achieve some level of justice.

Summary: Not Sure Why It Has Such High Ratings
Comment: To be fair, this comic is dated now. Moreover, I'm probably comparing it to Batman Begins, which--I thought--was a great telling of Batman's origin. And, that movie did simple copy part of its story from this comic. Nonetheless, this comic lacks much of what made the story in Batman Begins so great. Frank Miller shows us Bruce Wayne's motivation--the death of his parents. But we knew that already. Yet, Miller adds nothing more to that. And, to be candid, the comic divides time with Gordon and Batman. I can see why it is necessary to spend time on Gordon, and Gordon's tale actually is the best part of the comic. Nonetheless, the story at times seems disjointed. The addition of Catwoman's story, while maybe useful in the grand scheme of Batman's continuity, adds nothing here. The story is short, and it just lacks the feeling of a cohesive story. I guess it's fine, but I don't consider it the masterpiece most other reviews seem to consider it.

Summary: Great Book!
Comment: I have the Original comic books (4 Parts)
I got this one for the bonus sketches...
They are great addition to that CLASSIC. Even better of what they tried to do with the first Batman (Of the new series of movies-The first 4 SUCK!)

Summary: Spectasmagorical
Comment: Just, wow.

The story and artwork might seem a little dated at first, but then this IS a prequel and I have no idea whether the effect was intentional but it panned out phenomenally!

Mazzucchelli's artwork adds a new dimension to Miller's already amazing skill as a storyteller who is especially adept at weaving his magic with the Dark Knight.

This was definitely worth a buy, and I'd recommend it to fans of the Dark Knight, fans of the movies and even casual browsers looking to figure out the substance behind the hype of the phenomenon that has become Batman.
