[SuperHeroQwimm · Rating 4 out of 5]

It was a pleasant little read but I felt like Batman himself was a tad off character.

[The Lady Anna · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved everything about this movie when it came out. The music, Michelle Pfeiffer, the creepiness....

I remember looking at the pictures in the middle of the book and making up stories where Batman and Catwoman were a team.

[Lamar · Rating 4 out of 5]

It felt like a different version of the film I have saw so many times but really a fun read!

[Robert Marshall · Rating 3 out of 5]

A decet retelling of the classic movie for younger audiences

[Michael Walker · Rating 4 out of 5]

A very good under 100 pages version of the movie an easy read and has the odd difference to the 1992 movie looking forward to reading the longer version at some point in the future.

[Fugo Feedback · Rating 2 out of 5]

Si no me equivoco, en su momento me gustó porque se parecía a la película, pero la comparaba con esta y me parecía una versión muy pobre y que no sabía aprovechar las escenas igual que en el cine. Si algún día lo vuelvo a tener (este es uno de los poquísimos comics que tuve de chico y luego desaparecieron), seguro lo relea y escriba una reseña más elaborada, pero tampoco tengo ningún apuro por que eso pase.
