Batman Knightfall: Volume 1

I have read Batman Nightfall: Volume 1. This is a collection of many comics from the Batman series (comic #1-20) in one book, so it is easy to finish the story and not have to get every comic. The author is a whole D.C. comics team, consisting of Alan Grant, Doug Moench, and Chuck Dixon. This book is just one part of the other two volumes of Nightfall written by this team.

This story is about Bane- a young child born in a prison and raised by hardcore criminals, that soon hears about a place called Gotham City, New York and the man that is called The Batman. For decades, he becomes obsessed with killing the Batman. He soon escapes prison and releases all the criminals from Arkham Asylum- a maximum security prison that holds all of the world's worst criminals. This book is about the Batman and Robin chasing down the worst criminals, including Croc, The Riddler, The Joker, Anarky, and Scarecrow, before finally reaching Bane in a one-on-one battle.


I really enjoyed the book. It was the best set of comics I've ever read. The plot and characters came together very well. If you enjoy comic books, stop what you are doing and go to the nearest comic shop and find this volume of Nightfall.

  1. I am interested of reading a comic book called Batman Knightfall Volume One: Where Batman and sometimes his sidekick Robin fight evil to save Gotham. They fight many Villains that are here to take over at some places. It is about a Bane-a young child born in a prison and raised by hardcore criminals, that soon hears about a place called Gotham City, New York and the man that is called The Batman. For decades, he becomes obsessed with killing the Batman. Other villains of Batman and Robin chasing down the worst villains; Killer Croc, The Riddler, The Joker, Firefly, and Other villains. But the main villain is Bane. I really enjoyed the book. It was the best set of comics I've ever read. The plot and characters came together very well. I also really enjoyed comic books too. The worst was that Bane came into the batcave and had a fight with Batman, and he got beat up so bad and wasn't fighting well; so Bane had picked him up and broke the Batman's back; Also he had an announcement with the people in Gotham city and said "Batman is no more!" "Your Protector!" "Gotham is mine!" He was out of shape and put casts on him and had some medicine right back at home; But then there was Jean Paul who had to fight Bane for him and had a special suit to beat him up.
