Description
The Creators of Batman: Bob, Bill and The Dark Knight The life stories of Batman's creators, Bill Finger and Bob Kane, are brought together in a comprehensive history that sheds new light on the origins of the iconic character. In the early days of comics, superheroes revolutionised the industry and culture, and Batman's debut in 1939 cemented his place as one of the world's most beloved characters. This book explores the complex and often contentious relationship between Finger and Kane, who constructed the world of Gotham and its denizens, and grapples with the legacy they left behind. The story of Batman's creation is one of fascinating characters and intriguing circumstances, as comic creators, journalists, and family members fought to have Finger's work recognised. This book gathers everything we know about Finger and Kane, and brings their stories side by side, set against the exciting background of the American comic's boom and Batman's Golden Age. By examining the lives and work of these two monumental figures, this book provides a unique insight into the creation of one of the most enduring characters in popular culture.
