(W) Frank Miller (A) David Mazzucchelli
In 1986, Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli produced this groundbreaking reinterpretation of the origin of Batman: who he is and how he came to be. Sometimes careless and naive, this Dark Knight is far from the flawless vigilante he is today. In his first year on the job, Batman feels his way around a Gotham City far darker than the one he left. His solemn vow to extinguish the town's criminal element is only half the battle. Along with Lieutenant James Gordon, the Dark Knight must also fight a police force more corrupt than the scum in the streets. Batman: Year One stands next to Batman: The Dark Knight Returns on the mantle of greatest Batman graphic novels of all time. The entire groundbreaking story is included in this 14 x 21 inch collection, the same size as most of the pages were drawn. This edition includes the complete graphic novel and a new introduction by David Mazzucchelli.

If ever a book deserved to be published in this format, it is Daredevil Born Again. Frank Miller, at the peak of his powers, crafted a story that remains-in an extraordinary career-one of his finest pieces of writing. And David Mazzucchelli does a stellar, tour de force job as his collaborator, providing a nuanced and nearly pitch-perfect turn as artist. If there is any book deserving to be reread and rediscovered…this is the one!
