This is a really good book about the origin of the batman. A shame though that the role of the joker is not approached ... Maybe in Year Two ?

Great Origin of Batman Story
Miller's story and Mazuchellis art combine for a great story on how exactly Batman started out. Great starting point to begin to read the Batman Legend. This and Dark Knight Returns are a must.
