It took you 4 hours? It took me about 1 and a half to two hours to read it, with the stuff written before and after by Miller.

This book made me like Batman again. But at the same time I hated the girl Robin.

Can't wait for the toys of Supes and Bats based on this comic.

best Batman book of all time.

and it's good, too.

(yeah, I hate Batman. He's a hack. Sorry.)

Joking aside, it's such a great book. The ending is fantastic.

I have not read Dk2, and I'm scared to do so.

That book is awesome, my favourite scene is bats "killing" the Joker.

Best Batman story ever. Miller just nailed the personality and the tone perfectly.

Long Halloween was good, but the ending was just so stupid. It was like Loeb thought, "Oh, I know! Let's throw in a twist no one saw coming for shock value!"

i didnt really care for how batman just let the girl robin join the team, i mean he let her join with no questions asked.
