Whether you grew up reading Batman comics, watched the campy television show, or eagerly await each new movie, this is the book for you. A retelling of the events that led to Bruce Wayne's becoming Batman, this book combines Frank Miller's tight film-noir writing with David Mazucchelli's solid artwork.

GRETA BOOK TO GLANCE BACK AT THE EARLY DAYS WHEN JIM GORDAN FIRST COMES TO GOTHAM AND STRUGGLES WITH THE CROOKED DEPT AND BRUCE WAYNES EARLY DAYS AS BATMAN
GREAT READ

Batman: Year One is probably my favorite Batman trade paperback. The book itself pays more attention to James Gordon (future comissioner) than it does the Batman, and that's OK.
Gordon goes through so many ups and downs--his introduction to the corrupt underbelly of Gotham, his developing friendship with Batman, his family coming under attack, and his budding feelings for his female partner... you really see how much inner strength he has. And you totally understand why Batman comes ... Read More

Created by Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli, the story of Batman's beginnings is told not only from the perspective of the Dark Knight but that of policeman Jim Gordon, his eternal ally and friend, as they take on Gotham's criminal underbelly and a corrupt justice system. Though it goes as far into Batman's origin as it has to, what really sets "Year One" apart is that it's as much Gordon's story as it is Batman's, which sheds more light on how their unusual partnership begins. As an added bonus, ... Read More

I bought this book for two reasons. Firstly, it's because I've always been a big Batman fan. Secondly, I was greatly influenced by a lot of the reviews out there, in particular, IGN's `25 greatest Batman graphic novels' list, which I think could do with a serious reshuffling.

For those who don't already know, Batman: Year One tells of the challenges that face Jim Gordon as ... Read More

Most Bat-fans will tell you Miller's Year One is one of if not the best Batman story ever told. I finally got to read it and have to say that while its good, its not anywhere the best. Batman/Bruce Wayne actually plays second fiddle to Jim Gordon who gets treated the best. Gordon comes off as how I have always pictured him in my head. Mazzuchelli's art is very good and much apppreciated over Miller's. Good but not great stuff!
