內容簡介

The ultimate guide to the man behind the mask...and the mythology behind the man.

"Criminals are a superstitious, cowardly lot. So my disguise must be able to strike terror into their hearts. I must be a creature of the night, black, terrible...I shall become a bat!" So declared millionaire industrialist Bruce Wayne, orphaned as a boy by a murderous thug and driven as a man to battle the scourge of crime by becoming Batman. Batman swooped into popular culture in 1939–and for nearly seventy years has thrilled audiences in countless comics, live-action and animated television programs, and seven feature films. Prowling the darkened rooftops of Gotham City, roaring through the teeming streets in the sleek, high-powered Batmobile, and leaping into action when the iconic Bat-Signal pierces the night sky, the Caped Crusader is a larger-than-life legend. And now, for the first time in more than thirty years, everything there is to know about Batman–from the beginning to the present, and from A to Z–is collected in one comprehensive new sourcebook. More than 500 pages of entries and illustrations include:

fascinating details and the complete background on Batman's origins

biographies of every major character in the Batman universe–including his closest allies, from Robin the Boy Wonder and faithful butler Alfred Pennyworth to Commissioner Gordon; and his countless enemies, from the Joker, Penguin, Catwoman, and the Riddler to Scarecrow, Two-Face, Ra's al Ghul and Poison Ivy

classic black-and-white comic book artwork throughout

two sixteen-page full-color artwork inserts

Even an all-access pass to the Batcave couldn't rival former DC Comics editor and Batman scholar extraordinaire Robert Greenberger's exhaustive ultimate archive. The Essential Batman Encyclopedia is a must for every Batman fan's bookshelf.

精彩書評

"Using as his starting point Michael L. Fleischer's 1976 reference, The Encyclopedia of Comic Book Heroes: Batman(Macmillan, Vol. 1), Greenberger (coauthor, The DC Comics Encyclopedia) here brings this fundamental guide into the 21st century, documenting characters both recently developed and still evolving. Organized alphabetically by character or site name, the entries run several paragraphs in length. Greenberger omits characters having only casual interaction with Batman; narrative intersections must occur at least twice to warrant a character's inclusion. The book is graphically rich; its stunning illustrations are by nearly 200 artists who have worked on Batman comics over the decades. Recommended for all graphic novel and pop-culture collections."
--Savannah Schroll Guz,Library Journal

"Over the last 69 years, Batman has experienced countless incarnations. For years, he seemed ageless and unchanging, but recently editors and writers have found many creative ways to explore the superhero's mythos. Expanding upon Michael Fleisher's The Encyclopedia of Comic Book Heroes: Batman (DC Comics, 2007), this volume attempts to clarify how Batman fits into these story arcs, and to catalog nearly every villain and close ally he encountered between 1939 and September 2007. Entries are limited to characters and information within the Batman universe. This focus on characters and internal plot may be fascinating to fans, but will limit the book's usefulness as a research tool. Fewer than one-third of the entries are accompanied by black-and-white illustrations. Two sets of color plates add much to the flavor of the work, though they impart little information. Overall, the book is extremely thorough within its scope and is well researched."
--Dawn Rutherford, King County Library System, Bellevue, WA,School Library Journal

　　　這部作品裏的蝙蝠俠不是英雄，而是一個反英雄。但他的行為——特彆是他早已不復當年的巔峰狀態，就連強壯的心髒也無法承受接連不斷的戰鬥，卻依然毫無懼色的麵對各種追兵——卻無法不帶有英雄色彩。他拒絕接受“老兵不死，隻是凋謝”的結果。
