		Year One ends with Wayne reclaiming his fortune – the heir to the empire had 15 years to show up or Wayne Industries would’ve been handed over to majority shareholders – his signet ring is his inheritance from his father, something Thomas handed young Bruce as he was bleeding to death outside the movie theatre.
		Year One was written as canon and DKR was an excellent “What If?” tale that DC have tried to separate from what they perceive as the “real” Batman.
		Batman: Year One is what happens when you hire a filmmaker who is all too willing to ignore the history of an iconic character in order to accomplish his vision.

		The third origin belongs to Catwoman, previously a prostitute, portrayed by Miller as the antithesis of Batman's wealthy do-gooder, but who is still inspired by his reported antics to don a costume and prowl the small hours.
		This is a retelling of the Batman myth, keeping the main crux so the concept remains intact, while bringing the story up to date for a modern audience.
		It's no Dark Knight Returns but this still ranks amongst the best Batman stories around, and should certainly be in the collection of any fan of the Caped Crusader.

	Fanzing 42 - March 2002 - Paperback Rack
		With Batman, DC showed impressive editorial restraint, and realized that there was no need to change one of the best origin stories in all of comics.
		The title, Batman: Year One tells you exactly what you're in for up-front: This is the story of Bruce Wayne's first year as Batman, starting even before he dreams up the name and costume.
		The contrast with the traditional portrayal of Batman as completely confident, supremely capable, and contemptuous of people who don't meet his standards, is striking, and still totally in character.

		Batman is portrayed very realistically, and James Gordon is no longer a one dimensional character.
		It is a shame that, Tim Burton's excellent two outings notwithstanding, the Batman of film and television is the one that is most solidly rooted in the collective psyche of the public.
		That Miller, Mazzucchelli and Lewis also manage to turn it into one of the finest Batman stories ever told is evidenced by the lasting impact it had on all subsequent interpretations of the characters involved.

		Year One followed Miller's success with The Dark Knight Returns, and served as a "prequel" of sorts for the entire Batman saga.

		The construction of this kit was fairly straightforward; the only pieces were Batman, the two pockets on his utility belt, the tombstone, and the base.

		Batman's origin is such common knowledge to our culture that hardly anyone doesn't know it, even non comic-book readers.
		Batman's origin has some unusual twists and details, but is still primarily the famous one of his parents being killed by a petty criminal causing Bruce Wayne into spending the next twenty years of his life perfecting himself in mind and body in order to fight crime.
		All of Batman's thoughts are done in cursive script, giving us the impression that he is keeping a journal.

		The early days of the character, his motivation and the reason's behind Batman's choice for acquiring a protÃ©gÃ© is an interesting subject and worthy of exploration.
		The story presented in "Robin: Year One" is very well organized and told in a direct manner and the artwork for this story is very well done.
		The limitation of using this device is that while Alfred continuously questions Batman using a protÃ©gÃ© the question is never put to Batman nor is it explained in another way, leaving this questioned unresolved throughout the story results in an unresolved plotline to the book.

		"Batman: Year One" is such an example and is truly a seminal body of work in the Batman canon.
		"Batman: Year One" introduces us to two main characters, one being the aforementioned Dark Knight and the other being his most trusting friend and ally, (Lieutenant) James Gordon.
		The most astounding feature of "Batman: Year One" is that it reads like a detective story and not a blockbusting special effects bonanza.

		Batman is not the invincible denizen of the dark we've come to know and love, but an awkward guy in a goofy costume who seems always to be within an inch of death.
		The sequence in which he conceives of the outfit takes the old cliché from Batman history of a bat crashing through the window and transforms it into a moving moment; YEAR ONE gives similar treatment to flashbacks showing the murder of Wayne's parents.
		It is about the beginning of Batman like you have never seen it before, but also and probably more importantly, includes the beginning of Commissioner Gordon, a Lieutenant Gordon here, with a pregnant wife, who comes to Gotham City and finds his whole department on the take.

		Miller originally wrote Batman: Year One in 1987 as a noirish, four-issue story published by DC Comics that detailed Bruce Wayne's origin as the Batman, including his self-doubts and the mistakes he had to overcome in order to emerge as the crime fighter we're all batty over.
		As previously reported, Batman: Year One is one of two Caped Crusader flicks concurrently being developed at Warners.
		Batman Beyond is set 40 years in the future, when Bruce Wayne is no longer Batman and his role is filled by Tim McGinnis, a Gotham high schooler who fights evil corporate forces that killed his father and now control what was once Wayne's empire.

		The "Year One" story has become commonplace in comics today, and far too often the writers attempt to retell or update the character's origin, failing in the attempt.
		Following in the well-tread footsteps of Frank Miller and David Mazzuchelli's Batman: Year One comes this tale of Robin's first year in the green and yellow.
		The art, by Javier Pulido and Robert Campanella, is relatively simple-looking and attractive, and the interactions between Batman, Robin, Alfred, and Comissioner Gordon all rang true to this long-time Bat-fan.

	IGN Boards - Tim Burton to helm Batman: Year One!!!!!!!
		Batman doesn't kill in the comics because he would have no rogues gallery, and his status as some kind of goody goody hero would be put in doubt (and since it's an ongoing story in the comics that doubt would have to be resolved at some point).
		I'm a nut for the Batman comics, but I always thought that Batman's code of not killing was tacked on as a type of moral for the kiddies.
		The very fact that you find Batman's killing disturbing, and your previous point that the police would be after a Batman that kills (like they wouldn't be after him either way), proves my point that the character's actions were meant to be questioned.

		Retracing Batman's first attempts to fight injustice as a costumed vigilante, we watch as he chooses a 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.

		Frank Miller did pen Batman's defining moment, but while The Dark Knight Returns changed the way we look at comics, the pivotal book for Batman was Batman: Year One, first printed in 1986 and collected in 1988.
		And we see Selina Kyle, a fiercely independent streetwalker who is inspired by Batman to don a costume of her own, although she turns to crime instead of crimefighting for her kicks.
		It's hard to imagine a better Batman tale than this, and I encourage anyone who's a fan of the character to track this book down and read the definitive version of his first year in the costume.

	Batman: Year One (Deluxe Edition) Review - Silver Bullet Comics
		Re-released in a handsome hardcover edition to tie-in with the Batman Begins flick, this is, quite frankly [sic] the single most important and high quality Bat-book that you should own.
		Miller produced possibly his best-ever DC work on this book, and Mazzucchelli's moody art, given an added grim and realistic tone by the subdued yet beautiful colouring of Lewis, fits the bill to a tee...there's no need for any other Bat-artist after this, Mr Mazz nails it from the off.
		This book is a stunning piece of work (I haven't even mentioned the forty-odd pages of extras, some very high quality items among them); it's a damning indictment of how moribund Bat-books have been since its original release, but this is genuinely a classic, an essential purchase for fans and non-fans alike...a must-have.
