Fine - By: Ross Tyrie, 27 Oct 2008 
I very much enjoyed this book. However, that being said, there is a great deal of filling & very little meat. Certainly, there are interesting comments from Frank Miller & Michael Keaton,in my opinion two of the most significant contributors to '80's Batman (and yes Alan Moore) but ultimately, this is a coffee table book, large & with plenty of visual stimulus (not unlike the IKEA catalogue). Good history, excellent art, above average book. In fairness, it's an excellent buy at the current price & I'd defo snap it up for a tenner.
The must have for all true Bat-fans - By: chilli.pepper@ntlworld.com, 01 Mar 2001 
This has to be the ultimate Batman source book. With the origins from Bob Canes' first comic creation through the camped up sixties & seventies with Adam West & Burt Ward, to the masterpieces of todays twenty first century writers/artists Frank Miller & Bruce Timm. Complete with a history of all the Caped Crusaders most adored villains & associates this piece holds pride of place on any book shelf. It also contains the most extensive photo collection of Batman action figures ever seen. A book worth its' weightin gold to all who love Batman.
....To the Batcave.....Bat-fans. - By: , 12 Jan 2000 
Ok, Bat-Fan so you've collected the comic books for years & you've wasted many an hour theorising on the motivations behind The Bat. So here's the opportunity to treat yourself & compare notes with Les Daniels, who has the inside stories on where all the essential Bat-legend creators were really coming from. It's worth it for the illustrations alone, but be warned, unless your collection is huge, you'll discover some other back issue you've got to have!
