The Al
Harris Library is home to a diverse collection of graphic novels. On July 20th,
The Dark Knight Rises
The Dark Knight Rises
premieres on
the big screen.
To coincide
with the release of the final chapter in this contemporary trilogy of Batman
films, we have collected some of the graphic novels in our collection that detail
the history of DC Comics’
Dark Knight. These books served to inspire this film.
Batman debuted
in Detective Comics #27 May 1939), created by writer, Bob Kane and artist,
Bill Finger.
Although the
concept has been modified, extrapolated and adapted into other media, the
Batman mythos continues to evolve and serve as a reflection of the times.
Please be
advised, this display contains books that are representative of the serious,
dark tone reflected in the newest films, and,
as such, depict the Batman in an equally mature manner.
Feel free to
check out any of these books!
Just ask the
staff at the Circulation Desk for assistance.
