Editorial Review:

Amazon.com Review:
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.

Product Description:
This riveting book sets Batman on a path that will change his life forever. A mass escape from Arkham Asylum and the emergence of Batman's most threatening foe, Bane, sends Gotham City spinning into chaos and takes Batman to the limits of human endurance! These volume is required reading for every Batman fan. Graphic novel format.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The Bat is Broken
Knightfall is one of the most ambitious Batman stories ever attempted. This book collects the first and arguably the best part of this story - the breaking of the Batman by Bane (the symbolism of the name is pretty obvious). The story begins with Bane engineering the breakout of all the insane criminals that are housed in Arkham Asylum. All of Batman's nemeses - The Joker, Scarecrow, Killer Croc and others - are let loose on the streets of Gotham all at once. This is Bane's clever and twisted strategy ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - By Far the Best Part of the Series
Like most triologies, the biggest character twists and best action sequences occur in Part II of Knightsend. The transition of John Paul Valley into the mantle of the Bat goes through a logical and compelling progression. Batman #500, the final volume in this book, was on of the first Batman comics I read when I was a child. I still have it, and it is still one of the best single-issue "Batman" comics I've ever read.

As a bonus, if you don't hate Joel Shumacher's "Batman & Robin" enough already, ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not very Good!
I remember reading this story as it appeared monthly way back in 1993. For the two people who don't know the premise; new Bad guy in town, Bane, makes destroying Batman hislife's mission; he confronts Batman and breaks his Back after unleashing all the inmates from Arkham Asylum, thereby softening up our hero enough to take him down easily.
It was always understood DC had a trick up their sleeve to put Bruce Wayne back together, but the book could have been much more fun had it been handled with a little ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - It's pretty bad
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.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Off to a good start
PART 1

I had heard mixed things about this trilogy. It's hard to ignore, because its one of Batman's most intense trials and it was also a pretty big stunt to undertake. However, you can't deny the importance of such a story and the impact that Bane had on the Bat mythology. Now it's hard to judge the story overall with just part 1 of 3, but I'll stick to the highlights.

Bane has a master plan and it involves pushing Batman to his ultimate limit. He starts by releasing all of the worst ... Read More
