Traces Batman's entire career, with full details of his incredible adventures and battles, his allies, loves, and formidable array of enemies.

DC's Dark Knight first emerged from the shadows in the pages of Detective Comics in 1939, when young Bruce Waye vowed to avenge his parents' murder and fight for justice in crime-ridden, corrupt Gotham City.

Packed with information on the Dark Knight, including how he was created and evolved over the decades, this in-world celebration of DC's most popular Super Hero explores his motives and drives, his incredible array of weapons and vehicles, his "family" of allies, and his formidable rogues gallery, including The Joker, Catwoman, Harley Quinn, The Riddler, Penguin, Bane, Scarecrow, Killer Croc, and many more.

This definitive volume brings Batman's thrilling story right up to date with full details of his exploits in recent DC storylines such as Rebirth, Dark Nights: Metal and Dark Nights: Death Metal. Featuring a detailed timeline of key events in the life of Bruce Wayne aka Batman, Batman: The Ultimate Guide is packed with spectacular full-color artwork from the original comics and is a dream purchase for the Dark Knight's legion of fans all over the world.
Matthew K. Manning has contributed to more than 40 books and comic books, including DK’s Batman: A Visual History, DC Comics: A Visual History and DC Comics: Year by Year. When not writing comics themselves, Manning often writes books about the comic book medium and its rich history. View titles by Matthew K. Manning
