There’s a very bizarre sense that comic book fans treat comic books as autobiographies of superheroes. The result is a very satisfying and exciting tribute to an iconic comic book character that doesn’t quite surpass Year One, but is clever enough to be clear that it isn’t trying to.Ĭomic book fans get antsy when it comes to matters of continuity. Even though the story is not in competition with Year One, comparisons are inevitable. The risk associated with Zero Year is phenomenal. A well-loved creative team, a significant anniversary, a clear distance between this time and Year One. So, if there was ever a time to go back to Batman’s origin, this was it. There are legitimate criticisms to be made, but Snyder and Capullo’s Batman work does hold up as some of the best Batman comics produced in quite some time, and one of true success stories of DC’s “new 52.” The duo have enjoyed a tremendous run – managing that rare intersection of critical and commercial success in mainstream comics.
However, Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo are the creative team working on the Batman book for the character’s seventy-fifth anniversary.
