I found this really hard to read, but not because it was bad. I’m not sure why I struggle reading comics so much but hey 💀
Overall I liked the portrayal of Batman here and how we see his inner monologue :)

“To bring an innocent child to life, in a city without hope...”

I’ve been wanting to get into comics for a little while now (specifically ones involving the batfam) and “Batman: Year One” was recommended to me as a beginning point — so it’s admittedly the first comic that I’ve ever read (which makes it a bit difficult to rate & review it). With that being said I will keep this review relatively simple & just say that it was nice getting some background information on the characters featured in this volume! :)
