Book Review: Super Reader
Summary: 4 Stars
Solidly done.
O'Neill again does not disappoint with a Batman story, as he follows the young Bruce Wayne in his wanderings and violent confrontation that leads him to the mysterious al Ghul and his training, and back to Gotham to become a legend.
Most of the time the author stays with Batman, but occasionally the viewpoing character is Gordon, Alfred, or Rachel, as far as that side of the law goes.
He conveys the tone rather well, and has a lot of fun with Lucius Fox, too.
Definitely worth reading.

Summary of Batman Begins
Based on the eagerly awaited new feature film-the exciting origins of the ultimate crime fighter!Bruce Wayne is dead. The young heir to the Wayne empire disappeared seven years ago. His vast fortune has been given away, and the crime wave that began with the brutal murder of his parents has turned Gotham City into a living hell. The last holdouts against corruption-the cops who can't be bought, the D.A.s who can't be intimidated-are outnumbered and outgunned. They need help . . . fast.
A world away, in a dank Himalayan prison, a nameless, hardened man fights every day to survive. He has spent seven years scouring the globe, studying the criminal mind, looking for an answer to the ugly riddle of his childhood. But something has been looking for him, too. Here, in the darkest places of his own anger, Bruce Wayne will discover his destiny-and an ordinary man will become a legend.
