Batman: Zero Year | Scott Snyder

So in honor of the upcoming film The Batman, I decided to take a look at the comic that seems to be its principal inspiration, Scott Snyder‘s and Greg Capullo‘s Batman: Zero Year. If you don‘t know, I‘m a huge (and I mean HUGE!) Batman fan, and I found this modern retelling of his origin to be mostly well done. For my full thoughts, see my review here:

vivastory What did you think of the movie? I'm going next weekend 2y
TH3F4LC0N It was really good! 😃 It had some issues, and it didn‘t quite top The Dark Knight for me, but it was still fantastic and I‘m definitely looking forward to the sequels! If you‘d like, I reviewed it here: https://youtu.be/7bMm4gZ5RlY 🙂 2y
vivastory Excellent! I'll check out your review after I watch it 👏 2y

A fitting conclusion to a sporadically brilliant run, Snyder continues to mix some brilliant concepts with some very goofy ones. Still, he's a great storyteller overall when it comes to pace and worldbuilding, and with Capullo and Plascencia continuing to give the character some of the finest art of his long life, BLOOM ended up being a brisk, enjoyable read. Not ZERO YEAR great, but still very worth reading.
