    1st printing. Collects Batman (1940-2011) #404-407. Written by Frank Miller. Art by 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. Hardcover, 14 1/2-in. x 21-in., 144 pages, B&W.
