About this Collection

This French-language collection presents the seminal 'Batman: Year One' storyline, originally by Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli, chronicling Bruce Wayne's first year as the vigilante Batman in Gotham City. It details his early struggles, his evolving tactics, and his initial confrontations with corruption, while also exploring Lieutenant James Gordon's own moral challenges in a compromised police force. Published by Delcourt as part of their 'Hors Série' line, this volume is a key entry in the Batman mythos, focusing on the character's grounded origins.

In Batman – Année 1 #1, Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli launch a definitive reimagining of the Dark Knight’s origins, grounded in a haunting, rain-soaked moment: Bruce Wayne sits in a bloodied armchair, a black bat hovering above him, casting shadows that blur the line between memory and nightmare. With Mazzucchelli’s masterful pencils and inks—matched in the cover’s stark, atmospheric rendering—this issue sets a tone of brooding intensity, where every shadow feels like a secret.
