Review Batman Archives, Vol. 1 (DC Archive Editions) / DC Comics:

When a young Bruce Wayne watched in horror as his parents were murdered, the legend of the Batman was born. Collected here are the first stories of the masked vigilante as they were originally printed in 1939. These stories include the classic first appearance of the Batman and the introduction of his teenage ally, Robin. These early adventures show how a dark and grim character and his humorous and light sidekick were masterfully combined to create one of the most enduring partnerships of all time.

Review Batman: The Man Who Laughs (Joker) / DC Comics:

Batman: The Man Who Laughs is a one-shot graphic novel by Ed Brubaker and Doug Mahnke, released in February 2005, and intended as a sequel to Batman: Year One. It tells the story of Batman's first encounter with The Joker in post-Crisis continuity. The book is similar in format and cover typography to the famous 1988 one-shot Batman: The Killing Joke. Interestingly, despite being aimed as a sequel to Year One, it has at least one notable continuity error, contradicting Year One continuity- in that at the end of Miller's novel, Gordon talks to Batman about a psychopath (the Joker) threatening to poison the Gotham reservoir. However, in The Man Who Laughs, Batman works out that Joker intends to poison the reservoir at the end of the book, perhaps retconning the famous and epic end scene of Year One. The title is a reference to the movie The Man Who Laughs, based on the book of the same name by Victor Hugo, which was an inspiration for The Joker.

Review McFarland  / Superheroes and Gods: A Comparative Study from Babylonia to Batman Publication date: 2007-10-15
Dewey code: 202.1
List Price: $39.95
Price: $35.95

Review Superheroes and Gods: A Comparative Study from Babylonia to Batman / McFarland:

The work provides a unique study of superheroes and gods in literature, popular culture, and ancient myth. The author selects a number of mythological figures (e. g. , Babylonia's Gilgamesh and Enkidu), ancient gods (e. g. , Greece's Eros and Tartarus), and modern superheroes (e. g. , the United States' Superman and Captain Marvel) and identifies the often striking similarities between each unique category of characters. The author contends that the vast majority of mythological superheroes follow the same archetypal character patterns, regardless of each hero's unique time period or culture. Each of the first nine chapters examines the heroes and gods of a particular region or country, while the final chapter examines modern descendants of the hero prototype like Batman and Spiderman and several infamous anti-heroes (for example, Dracula and The Hulk).
