Along with taking readers on an unparalleled journey into the creation of the most memorable Batman moments in the character's eighty-year history--from the "Knightfall" comics arc to Tim Burton's films and the Arkham video game series--the book busts open the DC Comics and Warner Bros. archives to deliver an avalanche of never-before-seen visual treasures that are guaranteed to blow the minds of Batman fans everywhere.Filled with exclusive insert items that further deepen the reading experience, this updated edition of BATMAN: THE DEFINITIVE HISTORY OF THE DARK KNIGHT IN COMICS, FILM, AND BEYOND is the ultimate exploration of a true legend whose impact on our culture has no limits.
