|  | Batman by Bob Kane, Chuck Dixon, Roger Stewart, Scott Beatty
Born in the late 1930s, Batman is one of the greatest of all fictional heroes. The Ace of Detectives, The Caped Crusader, The Dark Knight - each generation has its own favorite nickname for this ultimate crimefighter as he wages war on a host of horrific supervillains. For Batman, the Ultimate Guide, Dorling Kindersley has been permitted unprecedented access to the archives of DC Comics, creators of Batman and shapers of his legend. For the first time, spectacular, specially commissioned artworks reveal the secret workings of key installations and equipment such as the Batcave, the Batmobile, Batman's suit and the weaponry contained in his Utility Belt. Panoramic views of Gotham City and Arkham Asylum with its villainous inmates really allow readers to enter into Batman's world. The crucial events and characters of the Batman legend are exclusively illustrated with drawings from the original DC comic books. The result is a unique, visually-driven, in-depth approach to the thrilling story of Batman's crimefighting career that will dazzle and delight fans of all ages.
