Batman: Prelude to Knightfall by Chuck Dixon
4.0
I decided to finally give Knight fall a read. I remember as a kid seeing posters at a local news stand with images of Bane breaking Batman's back, and I can remember seeing the actual comic on the shelf, but I was living for the new Batman costume with the spikes and the extreme design. Anyway, I digress...
Overall, this was an excellent intro to the Knight fall story. In this volume, we meet Bane, and we see his grand plan build as he is like a hunter sizing up his prey. I would say this collection is almost perfect, but I do wish that DC added the Sword of Azreal limited series because it just feels like Az just shows up and we are expected to know and care about this character based on a couple of summary pages.
