"We've seen encyclopedias and books on characters before but this is something different. Including the history of all the major Bat-characters, the presentation of files, letters, newspaper articles and pictures gives the information in a way that doesn't come across as dry or boring. You get a feel that you're actually part of the DC Universe and are reading actual documents. The author has put a great amount of detail making each piece that hasn't appeared anywhere else feel true to the comics."
Thanks to
Comicvine we now have info and a full review for
The Batman Files on their website.
Personally, I love things like this and I will definitely be picking it up.
The book is being published by Andrews McMeel Publishing and has a release date of October 25, 2011. But if you plan on attending New York Comic-Con, copies will be on sale there before being offered to the general public. The book has a retail price of $100 but you can find it cheaper ($61) online at places such as Amazon or Barnes & Noble.
