Another competent Batman novelisation, which again suffers from the original script itself. Trying to whack two villains in together in that short a space doesn't really do justice to one or the other, and in this case it is the Penguin that draws the short straw. That being said, the rest of it is decent enough, and you can certainly get it very cheaply now.

Better & Darker Than The First
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Craig Shaw Out Did himself on this book. The characters and plot is more darker than the first. He gives you more info on the Penguin & Catwoman. The Action Is Tense and full of suspense. If You liked this book then read Batman, Batman Forever & Batman & Robin
A very dark but nicely done comic-book based on the film!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book is much better than the movie itself, in my opinion. It's much more serious and sophisticated in a graphic novel format and the gothic mood is more captured in this way. And it also demonstrates quite elegant drawings of the beautiful, sexy Catwoman in her shiny sewn-together costume and the virile Batman in his handsome bat get-up with its long, sweeping cape. Their lithesome stunts and fierce struggles on the moonlit rooftops are artfully depicted in each panel as well. As for the Penguin himself, he provides a very colorful, circus-like flavor to the story with his kooky penguins and his gaudily-costumed associates. In addition, there are many grisly deaths and a much more tragic ending as well. In all, this film adaptation is quite a lovely little comic album to keep anywhere on your most favorite bookshelf!
Batman Fans Beware! Here is a great book!

I don't know what the other guy who reviewed this book was talking about, but you don't need a soundtrack for this book to be good. Think: imagination, it's a wonderful thing. I'm betting that's why some people don't think this book is all that good. It does stay with the script, that's true. It's dark, no matter how you look at it: book, or movie. I love this book.
