- čas přidán 1. 03. 2016
- In his first year on the job, Batman feels his way around a Gotham City far darker than the one he left. His solemn vow to extinguish the town’s criminal element is only half the battle; along with Lieutenant James Gordon, the Dark Knight must also fight a police force more corrupt than the scum in the streets.

Buy Batman Year One right now! amzn.to/1LOSVbb
The best part, obviously, was Tiffany showing up in the middle to say Batman was stabbed by a hooker. This episode was so fun. You guys are the best.
that was fucking hilarious
@@shanejohnson8403 I died😂😂😂😂
I laughed so hard while taking a drink that Dr Pepper just shot out of my nose.
It is so darkly humorous to read this story after Batman: Dark Mirror when you realize what James Gordon Jr. grows up to be.
Caitlin Brewer black mirror*
@Coom Lord Look it up on this channel, they covered it pretty well.
@Coom Lord Ah, my bad. Read it a while ago, but never bought it, so I didn't catch the mistake.
Lmao
Is this a spoiler?
If I were recommending Batman stories, I'd do his first canonical five years as Batman
Batman Year One
Man Who Laughs
Mad Monk
Monster Men
(Mr Freeze, Poison Ivy, Mad Hatter, Penguin, Scarecrow, Riddler origins)
Long Halloween
Dark Victory
Gauntlet
Robin Year One
Batgirl Year One
Pretty neat. What about Prey?
In a city where everyone plays ball, one man decides to play hockey.
Another great video, Sal!
i turned my head for one second and then Tiffany is just there and it made me jump.
+Robert Devlin I read your comment before I watched this and that part still made me jump lol.
I saw it coming.
The fact that this story is canon makes it all that much more special
Sal: having Bruce Wayne surrounded by bats in Batman begins is over the top and overly dramatic.
Also Sal: why did they cut out a scene where Val Kilmer stands in front of car sized bat creature in Batman forever, that would’ve been awesome
It is because it follows the comics
@Firas Massadeh Well the bats circling in a weird bat tornado around young Bruce as he rises from the cave is also from a comic. “The Man Who Falls”
'The city is mostly alleys'
You have crime alley, rape alley, murder alley, chocolate fudge sundae alley..
Bowling Alley?
Kirstie Alley?
Lol
But don’t let the name fool you, that alley is the worst of them all
"What happens in Chocolate Fudge Sundae alley?"
"Crime, but it's not as bad."
Can you blame Selina for being so quick to switch professions? Being a prostitute is a pain in the ass. That's extra of course, but y'know...
This is THE single best Back Issues episode EVER, perfect combination of storytelling, comedy ad story theme analysis. You guys are the freakin best, live this channel.
+Sherif el Sherif Thank you, man!
I always like to imagine Batman: Year One is like the Taxi Driver of Batman comics.
I would pay anything for a crazy taxi game where you play as batman
+danyal ahmed That would be fun I guess, but I was referring to the film lol.
Oh I know, but now that needs to exist
It's funny you should say that because the last time I read it my first thought was "wow, this is basically Batman directed by 1970s Martin Scorcese." The interpretation of Gotham especially feels like it's ripped straight out of Taxi Driver or Mean Streets, and the colouring by Richmond Lewis gives it that perfect neon-noir tone Scorcese utilises. I can't help but feel like they had to have been influences on Year One in some way.
The sheer joy in Tiffany's eyes at the concept of Batman getting stabbed by a hooker is just infectious (kinda like whatever diseases must've been on that knife that Batman was stabbed with). :)
To be fair the image of batman being stabbed by a young hooker is hillarious
Man first Jim cheats on Barbra
Then Grant Morrison turns Jim Jr into a serial killer
Mama Gordon has the worst luck
zangetsu134 I'm pretty sure Scott Snyder turned him into a serial killer
Oh.
So Black Mirror was the first time he was used like that?
My bad
Still bad luck for Barbra tho
zangetsu134 Wasn't her name Brahbara?
In the animated movie Bryan Cranston play Gordon and he's perfect.
Just finished my first read through ever… and this lived up to the hype and more. It was hard to imagine it being able to do that beforehand but wow. Frank Miller wrote beautifully and the art was perfect then and now makes my mind harken to the past
When they talk about how everyone talks in fragments and Ethan says, “I’m reading it in Batman’s voice,” and Sal says, “everyone kinda talks like Batman,” I had a huge laugh thinking “Gotham makes a different breed” but honestly it kind of works with Miller. I don’t think he planned that, but it works with this story
The thing is, I honestly kinda liked the costumes for the rejected Year One movie.
Something about the 30’s-esque design intrigued me.
Darren Aronofsky was also supposed to direct a WOLVERINE film, a Robocop film, and an adaptation of Frank Miller's RONIN.
20:10 I'm not gunna lie that part got me good
Ah, the times when Frank Miller could write a good story without it going off too much into his crazy, unbound, extreme imagination.
amen brother
He was beloved and respected for a reason. He also became hated and shunned for a reason as well.
+rhemorigher that or he went insane.
+Will Weber and his ability to make rasional writing decisions diminished more and more.
+Bryan Leong a sad fate for a once good writer.
The ending made me realize that during year one at some point Batman stopped red hood and joker was made. Kinda surprised there is no reference in it throughout the entire book.
53:42 Sorta funny considering how james junior turned out
I know. Was he already a psycho when this book came out.
+Will Weber Well it is imply that James Jr. being an horrific people-killing psychopath something that was always in him. So probably....it just you know he's a baby at that point and can't do much
+Redem10 interesting idea.
Tiffany scared the shit outta me XD
I’m on a Batman Back-issue binge, since the new movies come out. Gonna see it this Tuesday can’t wait
Holy shit I forgot it was back issues day. Thanks comic pop for brightening up a shitty day
officially done all books in the frank miller batverse.
So... Tiffany scared the shit out of me. What should my Superhero Identity be?!?!
you must become a tiffany
+sidus ang Tiffwoman
Dammit, I was about to go to bed, then you hit me with a Back Issues... Guess I can hold off on sleep for an hour and nine mins..
Could you guys do The Man Who Laughs sometime? Pretty neat since its supposed to be the first Batman-Joker confrontation
The best fan satisfaction ever when Tiffany came in
I think you missed the full importance of that first Flass scene. I think this comic has been the only superhero comic I've read to broach the topic of police brutality, especially toward African-Americans, during the war on drugs/crime era.
but I love the show, just wanted to point that out.
J Do Okay that’s good for you
When Tiffany showed up i yelled out "Fucking Hell!" 😬😅😂
The bit following 53:40 makes me want you guys to do a Back Issues of one of the Batgirl arcs that includes grown-up serial-killer James Jr.
Also, really can't wait for their reaction to Gotham Central if you guys ever get to that run.
You guys are so awesome and I've seen every episode of Back Issues multiple times and I love every single one of them! Hope you guys keep up all the good work!
56:34 solid cat meow 😹
That was the best episode of Back Issues in a while, thanks guys!
I love watching you guys, it reminds me of my days hanging out in my comic shop when I was in my twenties
Thanks for this episode guys!!! Read this back in Jan. as part of my Miller-athon in preparation for BvS. For future episodes I'd love to see you guys talk about Batman The Cult and Son of The Demon.
Darren Aranofsky's Batman year 1 is ridiculous
+The RED Samurai The script available online I'd say it become a future episode!
+Redem10 Yeah that would be sick I loved the episode when they did James Cameron's script for Spider-Man, I Really want them to do more Superhero Scripts that were never made!!!!
The art for the year one movie is pretty good. I would love if DC used the middle suit in a film. BRING BACK THE OVAL!
Literally the only thing about this I don't like is Selina being a hooker. But saying she was just pretending to be a hooker is bullshit. Either commit to this or throw it out all together.
The first video I've seen of your channel, and you guys are great! You guys have great energy, are funny, and have good on screen chemistry.
Thanks Matty!
I get what you're saying about the broken dialogue. I always thought as though you were breaking in on a conversation not meant for you, they we do in everyday life, missing pieces of sentences. There's a realism to that I like.
20:13 one of the best Comic Pop Back Issues moments. You're welcome 😂
Sal, you are by far my favorite CZcamsr. I love what you do... I hope you enjoy doing all this as much as I enjoy watching. Also a shout out to Tiffany because she really brings a lot to the show, I love her!
YES!!!!! I've been waiting for you to do this!
Another episode, another home run. I really love when you guys(and gal) do Batman stories. Batman is my favorite superhero, and as a character that is always so serious, and taken so seriously by fans, its really fun to see him picked apart and called on all the nonsensical bullshit.
56:33 I just noticed the cats meow
Love this episode thanks guys
I actually really enjoy Batman Forever. It's like if the Adam West show (which I also enjoy in small bursts) had a budget. Obviously there are some super cringe worthy moments but overall I have a lot of fun with it.
I feel the same and I find most of the deleted scenes awesome and sad they couldn't cut the cringe and put in the awesome.
I think the moments the characters speak in fragments is to insinuate the main character in the scene isn't paying attention to what they're being told so they only hear fragments of a one sided conversation.
I love the early years of Batman, when he was still learning. I've really gotten tired of people who write him like a Bat-God.
Thank you twitter! I needed this today!
L0L Tiffany's lil cameo was both adorable and hilarious
When I first read Year One, I was confused why he had a son when Batgirl was supposed to be his kid. Plus, the boy is never mentioned. Then I read Batgirl Year One and Black Mirror. As it turns out, Barbara is actually his niece or something, who came to live with him when she was young. As for his son, James Junior, he was sent away for a while and he also just disappeared after a while when he got older. James Junior is a psychopathic murder, who absolutely terrifies his family. He even out-crazies Joker in Death of the Family.
yeah, I didn't know that Barbara was adopted until batman black mirror
This comic sounds like such a fun ride, I'm definitely going to take a look at it one day
Hey ComicPOP is it possible to see a back issues on the Night Gwen Stacy Died? I would be really intrigued to see your take on that, Sal.
+superhandsomepig Are you following me?
+superhandsomepig Fair enough
you’re 4 years too early
@@Angellisgod Was about to say this
I actually bought this because of this episode, great book love the extras and the art.
i love this book and you guys thank you so much!
Love the shoutout to Mask of the Phantasm! Such a great little movie, and one of the best Batman themes from Shirley Walker. Would you guys ever consider doing a Back Issues on it, or is that off the table since it's not a printed work? Just curious.
It would be cool to see a Back Issues on another script. Maybe on Kevin Smith's Superman Lives or JJ Abraham's Superman Flyby. I'm working on a Batman script for a project in school. It sucks so it would be fun to see you tear it apart. It probably won't happen but I can dream can't I :)
You guys should do a dramatic comics episode on the "I shall become a bat" scene. I really liked Ben's voiceover for batman in the killing joke episode.
Yes! I've wanted this for sooooooooooooo long.
I read the novelization to Batman Forever and they had that scene with the bat in young Bruce's face. The scene was that Bruce had danced with the devil in the pale moonlight. It would have improved the movie a lot... though all the neon/ rave party stuff would have brought it right back down again.
20:10 LMAOOOOO
"takes him apart like a high school science experiment " lmao
Good stuff sal you really should have more subs your channel is great
Gotham Central is amazing. You should check out the Omnibus coming out.
Its absolutely amazing
Awesome!
Five years later
I still want that SuperHeavy episode of Back Issues!!
20:12... oh my god... hahaha
Watching this exactly six years after the fact.
4 years later and tiffany managed to scare the shit outta me A G A I N 😭
I don't understand the hang-up on dialogue. It sounds natural and conveys the message, while remaining brisk. Frank knows what he is doing.
I had entirely forgotten that you guys hadn't done this story yet. Any chance of doing Batman: The Black Mirror any time soon?
Was not expecting the cameo.
My girlfriend ironically got me the Long Halloween yesterday, I already own Year One. Read it, loved it, and I come home to find this back issues haha... I can't wait to read the Long Halloween and then come back and watch the back issues
Maaan I got this book hardback for $3.99, *10 years ago* as part of a collection. It also included The Man Who Laughs. Few years ago I got my hands on Long halloween part 1 and 2, but the guys who published it messed up and the final 3 issues of Long Halloween continued in a third book I couldn't find anywehere. I also got dark victory and, once again, part 2 is in another figging book I cant find to this day. Amazing episode, this book is one of my all times Batman favorites and the first hardback i ever bought :)
Ahh, old-school Frank Miller, good writing, no bat-shit crazy yet...
20:15; I was looking at a comic book I was making them I heard Tiffany and looked over and she scared me. ha.
Thanks for the link for the Hardcover
My favorite Batman book without a doubt
this is a really great comic
You've done allot of Batman. Maybe you should consider doing more Batman. You do a great job and i cantell you love these books as much as me
Barbara never dies in the comics... Essen is the one who dies she is killed by the Joker.
+MsMadman10 In this continuity she was dead. It was later retconned, but in the context of both the Post-Crisis DCU at the time (and the Millerverse), she's dead. Essen was killed 13 years after this story was published.
oh okay. What story was Barbara killed/died in? also if you guys haven't done Black Mirror you definitely should! Thanks
for some reason i remember a back issues on the killing joke... maybe it was a tangent. anyhow love you guys.
I would love it if you guys did some Morrison's stuff because that is probably the best run in batman history.
.....
It's Over 9000 Productions What does that mean?
Grant Morrison?
It's Over 9000 Productions
He is one of the best batman writers out there. I really recommend his stuff. He had a long successful run.
RyanMatthews22 Wow you're serious
YES MY FAVORITE BATS STORY
37:55
Bruce: "And then I close the lid on the flambe to kill the flame."
Alfred: "But how do you know they'll be serving flambe?"
Bruce: "Alfred you made us flambe last night and that was just for the two of us.."
Year One, Zero Year, Earth One Jesus guys how many bat - origins are we doing?!
All of Them!
From the cover I thought they where hitting the worst dab.Then i remember this is a batman episode
Love Ben's shirt of JAWS!!! Awesome!! Bro!
Aye you guys doin' that dab in the thumb nail! xD
You guys should do the Year One script
Actually Holly becomes a version of Catwoman in Catwoman#53, where she was trained by Ted Grant aka Wildcat
lol that cameo by tiff
Is that Tiffany cameo a reference to the Zero Year Episode you did? That was hilarious, haha.
Or was it the one where Batman had real eyes, Earth 1? Anyway it was dead funny.
Flimpeen Flarmpoon It was both
I really like that animated movie. I'm definitely going to read this story.
For the upcoming daredevil season 2 can you guys go either Garth ennisses run, man without fear, or even Kevin smiths run on daredevil please.
