Editorial Review:
Product Description: Broken Bat is the first of two volumes collecting Knightfall, the much-talked about Batman storyline--much talked about because it was the story in which Batman gets defeated. The huge, muscle-bound villain Bane has but one goal in mind, to break Batman. The end of this volume is somewhat shocking compared to standard, mainstream comic book continuity.

The writing is terrible and hokey. The art is generic. Not to be placed among the more literary Batman books such as Dark Knight Returns, Year One, Arkham Asylum, Long Halloween, etc. Good story, just done poorly.

"Batman: Knightfall, Part One: Broken Bat" is great buy for any Batman fan. It chronicles the emergence of Bane, a beast of a brute with the drug "venom" running through his veins and also the genius of diabolical plan to destroy the Dark Knight.
In this great work, Bane and his goons create a breakout in the Arkham Asylum and in so doing flood the streets with Batman's greatest foes for him to capture one by one (Joker, Scarecrow, Mad Hatter, Riddler, Poison Ivy, Croc, Firefly, and the ... Read More

Some years ago, two men came up with a great storyline for Batman. They created Bane, whose creation was really only for this storyline. He breaks the Batman, something countless villians and events (even the death of Jason Todd) couldn't do. ANd it is brilliant. Bane releases the captives of Arkham Asylum. A brilliant move, both for villany and for story. All of Batman's greatest enemies (and I mean all of them) wreck havoc on Gotham, wearing Batman out before Bane finally takes him down. It's a great ... Read More
