Seven stories by creators such as John Layman, Scott Snyder, and Bryan Hitch pay tribute to the character's origins, take a peek at Batman's possible futures, and acknowledge the scope of the Dark Knight's 75 year legacy.
None of these stories are filler; the lengthier ones would be right at home in any of the current Batman titles, and the shorter ones are stronger than most backup or anthology stories.
The two dozen plus creators involved with these tales are among the best of the industry's current crop of talent, and all of them capture both the essence of the character. There's an admirable array of diverse artists and writers here that deliver a wide assortment of stories that exhibit why the character has been so enduring for generations.
John Layman and Jason Fabok are among the best who demonstrate this diversity with the introduction to their "Gothtopia" arc, where Gotham has become a bright, shiny and Metropolis-like city under the watch of happier and daylight-embracing Batman. Layman's perhaps-deliberate pedestrian introduction gives way to the surprising nature of the story, and there is probably no better choice than Fabok to make Gotham look beautiful.
It's almost disappointing that Layman reveals the nature of this striking change so quickly, as this unique and unusual incarnation of Batman and his city is worth further exploration. It's full of unexpected elements that are in keeping with the kinds of surprises Snyder's put forth in "Batman," and Murphy's large panels are jammed with all sorts of fascinating Easter egg-type bits that are worth the time it takes to peruse them slowly.
Or maybe I should say that the bad guy falls into acid. I almost forgot that detail at the end of it. I think too there are a lot of little elements over the years that have become undeniable pieces of the Batman canon: the pearls hitting the sidewalk when his parents are killed, or the bell he uses to summon Alfred but gets a bat.
Did you find there were any later elements that you thought of as so essential that you wanted to work them in? Yeah, of course. You can see right in there that the way Batman gets out of the death trap in the very first story is because he races in with his full costume, and when he gets locked inside this trap, the reason he gets out is because as he was racing inside he went "Oh look, there's a wrench" and grabbed it.
That's what it's there for — to get you out of death traps. So that detail isn't there. It's clear in the original story that the utility belt is just on him because it looks cool. Bill Finger and Bob Kane knew how to do that, God bless them. So for me, the interesting thing here was to see just how much got pulled in over the years. It's kind of like how Superman learned how to fly in a cartoon, and then it makes the comics.
It all kind of influences itself, and that's not a weakness. That's the beauty of this mythology.
