Book Review: Greatest Batman Origin Ever
Summary: 5 Stars
While I do not own this Hardcover edition (and thus cannot speak for it's quality, or lack thereof), I do own a reprint of this story.
In all honesty, I can't imagine a better origin for one of my favorite comic book characters.
Not only was it darker and more serious than the 1940's origin, it did an excellent job brining the character into the modern world (the 1980's anyway). An excellent revamp for this classic hero.
Summary of Batman: Year One Deluxe Edition
The classic story by Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli is released in an all-new deluxe hardcover edition! A young Bruce Wayne spent his adolescence and early adulthood traveling the world so he could hone his body and mind into the perfect fighting and investigative machine. But now as he returns to Gotham City, he must find a way to focus his passion and bring justice to his city. Retracing Batmans first attempts to fight injustice as a costumed vigilante, we watch as he chooses the guise of a giant bat, creates an early bond with a young Lieutenant James Gordon, inadvertently plays a role in the birth of Catwoman, and helps to bring down a corrupt political system that infests Gotham. This edition includes new introductions by Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli, development art with commentary by Mazzucchelli, script pages, thumbnails, promotional art, samples and a look at Richmond Lewiss groundbreaking color.General Books
