The official behind-the-scenes illustrated tie-in book to the smash hit The Batman by Matt Reeves This gorgeous book offers an insider’s look at the design and production process for The Batman , including insightful interviews with the filmmaking team and cast; never-before-seen conceptual paintings and set photos exploring this new version of Gotham City; shot-by-shot comparisons between the film and storyboards; and a closer look at the designs for the costumes, vehicles, gadgets, riddles, and more. Two years of stalking the streets as The Batman, striking fear into the hearts of criminals, has led Bruce Wayne deep into the shadows of Gotham City. As the evidence surrounding a series of crimes begins to lead closer to home and the scale of the perpetrator’s plans becomes clear, Batman must forge new relationships, unmask the culprit, and bring justice to the abuse of power and corruption that has long plagued Gotham City. The Batman stars Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne/The Batman, Zoë Kravitz as Selina Kyle/Catwoman, Paul Dano as Edward Nashton/ The Riddler, Colin Farrell as Oswald Cobblepot/The Penguin, Jeffrey Wright as Lieutenant James Gordon, Andy Serkis as Alfred Pennyworth, and John Turturro as Carmine Falcone. Review: Great book, but what is with the cover?!? - This is a great book, and I really mean that. The illustrations are excellent; especially exciting are the sections on the Batmobile and the gloomy look of Gotham City. However, I am taking two stars off for the condition of the cover. It’s made quite cheaply, and the absurd amount of wrinkles and dimples on both the inside cover and the outside cover make it a return for me. I am hoping that you get a better looking copy than I received! I will update/upgrade my review should the replacement look better. EDIT: The replacement did look better, but still not what I would expect from a brand new book. I am not that picky, but I have bought thousands of books during my life, and they have never looked like this. If there weren’t such differences between the two copies I have perused, I might have thought that the flaws are some weird artistic statement. But there are, and they are not. Review: Great additional insights and details - Excellent quality binding and pictures. Detailed pictures of concept art and breakdown of gadgets and character designs. I had originally considered taking off a star in this rating due to the pictures looking so dark, but it's honestly the way the entire movie feels. There isn't any bright or colorful scene in the movie making it and the book set a gloomy tone throughout. It works though. Just different compared to other "Art Of" books that might have brighter concept art. It's a well organized book separated into sections for each character or production phase. While there isn't much text, each section has a dedicated portion with details that add insight into the production, characters, gadgets, and my favorite - vehicles.

Super high quality. Everyone who comes over picks it up and checks it out.
Amazing book and not too expensive. It is SUPER high quality. The art just POPS and the whole book is just awesome. I have it on my coffee table and people love looking through it. Lots of cool text to read in it as well. I would buy from this company again for sure.

before you buy !!
i adore this film so getting this book was a must :) i love the content inside so i do not regret buying it, i just wish i had waited to see reviews on the conditions the book came in. mine was creased on both the top and bottom corners of the spine. it ruined my excitement for a bit but i still treasure this work! i recommend buying this at an actual bookstore and not amazon since books always come with some sort of physical flaws because of the shipping and handling.

Surprisingly better than expected!
One of my daughters got this for me. You will definitely love this book if you liked the movie. I always find it fascinating to see concept art work. Get a more detailed look at what you can't always see in the movie. Basically if you're a fan of Batman or this movie. Definitely worth the price and mine arrived in pristine condition.

Great book
This book is great. Gives you some great insight. A lot of Unit Photography, Concept Art, Concept Sketches, VFX 3-D Renders, Film Stills and Graphics. Some of the concept arts tend be on the darker side but they were obviously intended this way to show the feel of what has become the movie. The lightings on those darker arts are actually beautiful. I’ve uploaded the maximum amount of images I could post and there are so much more to see. Just wanted to show you that it’s not at all hard to see these beautiful images as some other reviewers say. The print quality is great. Photography images are sharp. Concept art images quality are great for what they’re suppose to be, since they were only intended for the movie which is why it’s called concept art [not print quality finished artworks]. I honestly wish there was more but it’s good amount to flip through and enjoy. I recommend it if you’re a fan of the movie or Batman in general. Cool book to own and add to your art book collection 😉

Świetne dopełnienie filmu
Książka/album super, natomiast zapakowanie przez Amazon tak ciężkiej i delikatnej rzeczy jedynie w cienki kartonik, sprawia że cisną się na palce słowa powszechnie używane za wulgarne i obelżywe.

Great Quality and Informative
A great companion book to Matt Reeves’ masterpiece. Chock full of exquisite images and behind the scenes tidbits that will satisfy any Batman fan. Highly recommend!
