  • In a Gotham City where friend and foe are indistinguishable, Bruce Wayne's path toward becoming the Dark Knight is riddled with more obstacles than ever before. Focused on punishing his parents’ true killers, and the corrupt police that allowed them to go free, Bruce Wayne's thirst for vengeance fuels his mad crusade and no one, not even Alfred, can stop him.

    Watching The Batman in cinemas the other day (no spoilers), I couldn't help but smiles at all the small details from this book, that clearly inspired the new movie - like Martha being an Arkham, Batman messing up sometimes etc. A solid mix of Earth One and Zero Year, I think.

      Geoff Johns is a great writer along with Grant Morrison who's run on Justice League got me into liking Justice League a lot. Also I have to admit Knightfall still remains a special place in my heart. It was the first story I ever read when I was a kid. Imagine a ten year old who never has read a batman comic and use to seeing him on Animated Series on fox. The first issue he reads is where Bane breaks his back. Welcome to comics kid.

    2:37-2:45 is what played through my mind when i first saw Battinson and I AM HERE FOR IT.
    Coming back to rewatch this (for the fifth or sixth time) before “The Batman” drops in 2 days….as it gives MAJOR Earth One vibes. SO glad they’re pulling from a pretty good series (even if it only has 3 volumes for Batman) and I hope, if they do a Superman in this universe, they use J. Michael Straczynski’s take as the template.
    As always, thank you ComicPop for just always being great

    Birthday boy seemed like such an odd choice for the serial killer in this. Would've preferred someone a little less hulking beasty, like Zsaz or someone. Overall though, we really dug the new take on the character, and some of the really inspired elements like kick ass Alfred and "experiencing technical difficulties" Batman. Plus, Gary Frank on artwork is more than enough to give it a buy, even if Johns wrote it with his feet.

    One thing I think would be cool to see in the next Batman reinvention is the changing of the movie the Wayne’s see. It’s been Zorro since year one I believe, but it’d be cool to use The Gray Ghost as the movie they see!

    You Gotta Do Volume 2!! I Enjoyed Volume 2 A Lot More Than The 1st, Probably Cos It Had A Lot Less Batfails And A Ton Of Reveals

    Tiffany, you say the car Mrs. Gordon was driving was a Lex Corp. car? I could have sworn it was a LEXus! (Bu-dum Tish!)
