Secrets of The Batman Revealed!
When Matthew K. Manning stumbled upon an unmarked box enveloped in nondescript brown paper wrapping left on the front steps of his Mystic, Connecticut, home, he had no idea it would prove to be one of the greatest journalistic discoveries in recent history. Upon carefully opening the suspicious package, Manning discovered a large book adorned only with the emblematic bat-symbol. One of the world's foremost historians on Batman lore, Manning soon realized he held in his hands the infinitely mysterious and previously unknown secrets of the Batman.
Now an exact replica of the amazing book that Manning unearthed that day is available to the public. This groundbreaking volume reveals the entire history and evolution of one of the most iconic figures in comic book history, from the early days of his life, his parents' death, and early training, up to his most recent exploits and triumphs.
Private photos and journal entries peer into the inner life of Bruce Wayne, as hundreds of illustrations and sketches penned by the Caped Crusader illustrate his metamorphosis from impassioned visionary to unparalleled crime fighter. Among the features included in The Batman Files:
