If there is one book in the plethora of graphic novels out there - on Batman or otherwise - one which can be considered a must read, is Batman: Year One.

Year One is Frank Miller's take on the origins of the Dark Knight, from the unsure and headstrong Bruce Wayne, to the outlaw vigilante he later becomes. As the title suggests, Year One chronicles Bruce Wayne's first year as the caped crusader as the takes on the scum of Gotham and escalates his war on crime.

The Batman we see does not have a batmobile,he is stripp...

Even though i had the digital version of this comics i couldnt stop myself from buying the physical copy of this book. it is no doubt the best batman comic i have read and maybe the best evr story of the dark knight ever to have been told.

But when they reached Batman unanimously it was decided he would remain the same as he was and will be perfect. All they needed was a new writer and an inspiring new artist. recently frnk miller ha...

This book is rated as the No 1 Batman Graphic novel of all time by IGN and I agree with that. Neat artwork and a superb story explaining the Origins of Batman. The story and the artwork shows the humane nature of the characters instead of the pulp version they were written for 60 years.

This book is def worth the buy, you can read it again and again and you will not get bored. It is amazing how this book written by Frank Miller 20 years ago is still the best.
