A new animated film from DC-Universe based on Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli’s Batman: Year One. This redefinition of the Dark Knight origin story blew me away, when I first read it. Batman Begins actually takes a lot from this story arc, as well as from Batman: The Long Halloween by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale, which I highly recommend. Now if only they would make Paul Pope’s Batman: Year 100.
IGN Comics ranked Batman: Year One at the top of a list of the 25 greatest Batman graphic novels, saying that “no other book before or since has quite captured the realism, the grit and the humanity of Gordon and Batman so perfectly.”The website added, “It’s not only one of the most important comics ever written, it’s also among the best.”
