Home Entertainment, two-part animated movie Batman: The Long Halloween begins with Part One on June 22, which is being followed by Part Two in the Fall. While The Batman might not be a direct adaptation of The Long Halloween, it’s clear that the movie channels the spirit of the comic into nearly every frame of the film.From Warner Bros. With so many great stories available, it’s not surprising that movies revolving around the Dark Knight generously take inspiration from the comics. This has direct parallels to the final issue of The Long Halloween, in which an enraged Batman almost kills Alberto Falcone for the violence he unleashed on Gotham. In The Batman, the Caped Crusader brutally beats a Riddler acolyte in a manner that frightens Jim Gordon and Selina Kyle. In The Long Halloween, Alfred cautions Bruce that he has seen sane people behave in surprising ways in the quest for justice. In addition, both the comic and the movie posit that fighting to do the right thing can bring out different sides of people.

The series is a gripping detective story revolving around a Batman who is only in his second year of crime-fighting. The result is the revisiting of Frank Miller's iconic Batman: Year One and continuing the story of the Dark Knight's early years in The Long Halloween. ![]() Like Don Corleone in The Godfather, the late editor Archie Goodwin made Loeb and Sale an offer they couldn’t refuse.
