Batman Year One

comic strip

Author Name: Frank Miller

Coming shortly after the publication of *The Dark Knight Returns*, Frank Miller's dystopian tale of Batman's final days, *Year One* sets the stage for the rediscovery of the legendary character. “If there's one book worth mentioning alongside *Watchmen* and *The Dark Knight Returns*, it's *Batman: Year One*.” *Miami Herald* “For any true Batman fan, this is an irresistible story.” *School Library Journal* “Mazzucelli's artwork is perhaps the best Batman has ever gotten. Miller's ability to capture the action is, quite simply, peerless.... It's an exciting and entertaining departure.” *Los Angeles Times Review of Book Supplement* “A graphic novel that weaves a popular contemporary mythos with a distinctly modern flavor and slick storytelling.” *Denny O'Neil* In 1986, Frank Miller and David Mazzucelli directed this unprecedented take on the origin story of Batman: who he is and how he came to be.
