Batman: The Definitive Visual History

En savoir plus sur le livre

"Since his 1939 debut in the pages of Detective Comics, Batman has become an icon, instantly recognizable the world over. Yet, despite being known to millions, Gotham City's guardian has been interpreted in so many radically different ways that we all now have our own Batman. To some he's the colorful Caped Crusader who dispatches villans with a POW! To others he's the grim Dark Knight hell-bent on avenging the death of his parents. And to others still he's made of LEGO, has great abs, and likes to eat lobster thermidor! For the first time, this deluxe volume tells the complete story of Batman and the many forms he's taken throughout the years across comics, TV, animation, film, video games, and beyond, to present a compelling portrait of one of the most recognizable and versatile characters in the history of fiction. Covering the complete history of Batman in vivid detail, the book features exclusive commentary from the key creatives who have been instrumental in building the Dark Knight's ongoing legacy, including Neal Adams, Tim Burton, Paul Dini, Steve Englehart, Mark Hamill, Grant Morrison, Julie Newmar, Christopher Nolan, Denny O"Neil, Joel Schumacher, Scott Snyder, and Zack Snyder."--Jacket
