Description

THE LONG HALLOWEEN is more than a comic book. It's an epic tragedy."�Christopher Nolan (director THE DARK KNIGHT RISES) Taking place during Batman's early days of crime fighting, this new edition of the classic mystery tells the story of a mysterious killer who murders his prey only on holidays. Working with District Attorney Harvey Dent and Lieutenant James Gordon, Batman races against the clock as he tries to discover who Holiday is before he claims his next victim each month. A mystery that has the reader continually guessing the identity of the killer, this story also ties into the events that transform Harvey Dent into Batman's deadly enemy, Two-Face.

    This is the basis for The Dark Knight movie among other things there is no doubt. It has the 2 plots going on with the holiday killer vs 2 Face situation & all the villains and characters in between that make it so enjoyable. So much to like about the story and the ending comes out of nowhere!

  • What a wonderful Mystery Crime

    This story portrays a level of The Dark Knight in a way that has no one has seen, in the films. The thrill of the mystery “Who is Holiday?” And a tragic ending of course. Each part of the story was amazing. I had a fun time reading The Long Halloween.

    I had a ton of leftover questions after finishing this read. It’s a thriller with a great cast. Now that I’ve started the next book in this series “Dark Victory” all those unanswered questions are finished off in the conclusion to this story. I suggest you get the next book to conclude the story in this collection. I thought this book was the entire storyline at first feeling disappointed.

  • Amazing

  • The Best of the Darkest Knight

    After reading dozens of Batman graphic novels over the years, I always come back to "The Long Halloween." Forget crazy sci-fi plots, and a dull man-of-steel formula. The telling of the greatest detective in a gangster noir mystery brings out the terror, inner conflicts, nobility, and presence of the Batman as nowhere else. From the slate night blue cover art, to "easter egg" lines from "The Godfather", to the brilliant re telling of Gotham legends, this is THE Batman story to enjoy. And leading off with a Halloween intro, for the spookiest hero of all! Be you casual fan or Dark Knight afficianado, this is the one you want. Enjoy...

  • One of the top five best Batman stories of all-time!
