The Batman origin story has been told so many times before in comics that it seemed silly to have someone do it again. Then Frank Miller proved everyone wrong by writing his version and changing The Caped Crusader’s world forever. This animated film based on Miller’s work does the same thing; it’s not just the idea of putting a new spin on the story, but breaking it down to it’s core values and building it back up into something new. The film covers young Bruce Wayne returning to Gotham City and his first attempts to become a costumed vigilante. It weaves into it the story of James Gordon as he tries to stay an honest cop and survive in the corrupt world of the GCPD. It’s pretty cool. What’s even cooler is the Catwoman episode included as a bonus, featuring the sexy voice of Eliza Dushku.
