In 2005, filmmaker Christopher Nolan redefined Batman for a new generation with Batman Begins, followed in 2008 by The Dark Knight, and now 2012’s conclusion to the trilogy, The Dark Knight Rises. Here, for the first time, is an in-world exploration of Christopher Nolan's Batman: The Dark Knight Manual, the definitive guide to his tools, vehicles, and technologies. Following the destruction of Wayne Manor, Bruce Wayne began to assemble key sketches, diagrams, observations, and other top-secret documents germane to becoming Batman; he then entrusted this manual to his faithful butler, Alfred. Every defining moment is detailed here, charting Wayne's collaborations with Lucius Fox at Wayne Enterprises on the latest cutting-edge technology. This package features a distressed vintage cover design and includes removable documents, including the design and capability of the famed utility belt, the hi-tech functions of Batman’s cowl, and every detail of his amazing arsenal of weapons and gadgets, The Dark Knight Manual reveals how Bruce Wayne operates as Gotham's greatest protector.

the dark knight has returned

July 11, 2015

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

this book's written from bruce/batman's perspective.

there is so much in this book it isnt even funny, joker's playing cards, pull out blueprints for 'the bat' and even a little booklet regarding the pneumatic grapple gun. the amount of inserts actually has the cover bowing a bit, not a bad thing in this case considering all the content, including things I'd never even noticed despite owning all 3 movies.

slight cavet though, some of the inserts are glued in in such a manner as to make looking at the pages they're attached over a tad awkward, aside from that, no real issue.

if you're looking for hidden nuggets(such as the page of gotham services stickers, yes those ARE stickers) or things you've missed that ARE in the movie, then this book is for you. if you're expecting behind the scenes comments and production notes? there are other books out there that cover that.

very much well worth the price paid.

Neat, but I could do without the gimmicks

August 24, 2015

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Purchased this along with the Iron Man manual, and they both make pretty neat coffee table books to flip through. If you're going to pick up just one of the pair, though, stick to Iron Man. They both have bunch of little inserts, mock sticky notes, dossiers, etc, glued in to the pages that add a neat little touch, and I have no real problem with the maps and schematics in the Dark Knight book, but the presentation of the dossiers is poorly executed and the stickers (which, seriously, we can do without) have the nasty side-effect of pulling ink off of the affronting page! Nix the stickers, and centrally locate all of the dossiers, maps, and schematics in a paper envelope in the back (making sure to not glue them together this time), and this book would be an easy 5 stars.

I bought this as a birthday present 4 years ago for a Batman obsessed boy I nanny for. He was turning 6 years old and was constantly asking questions like, "I wonder what the dimensions of the bat cave are" and "I wonder how I could build a bat-mobile." I searched for a few days to find something to give a deeper explanation to this curious fan and was absolutely THRILLED to find this book!! He had every Batman book, movie, toy, costume item, etc., but this book is different! It offers a detailed look at the characters, story, tools, inventions, and more! To our delight it even has a blueprint of the bat cave including dimensions! This book has been read cover to cover multiple times, was the favorite bedtime story book for several months and continues to be found around the house after 4 years. It is not a kiddy, picture book, but is great for kids and filled with file-folders, flaps, envelopes and more to open and remove maps and such. It has held up really well too! I am completely pleased with this purchase and would absolutely buy another and have recommended it to others who are looking for something Batman related for a serious fan. It's pretty freaking cool!

Great Book

April 27, 2014

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

At first I thought this would be another "typical" book with a few pictures here and there telling the story of how the producers and the design team came up with certain movie props and ideas; boy was I wrong.

Firstly, the book itself is quite large and the pictures are crisp. But that is just one fraction of what makes this book so awesome.

To call it a "book", in the traditional sense, may be incorrect since while it does have pages, each page has pictures, papers attached, and every couple of pages represents files in a folder. Think of it when police officers analyze a criminal's background information and the folder he/she is holding has paper clips and random information inside? This book is the same.

Pictures, blueprints, memos, and more are all pasted into the book in a sort of controlled chaos which really adds an extra element of pop while reading what this book has to offer.

I highly recommend this book to any dark knight fan or any fan of interesting book layouts.

Awesome book with tons of surprise extras!

May 27, 2016

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

This book is like no other! I bought this for my husband who is a lifelong Batman fan, and he was very impressed. (I really set the bar high for future gifts now!) The book contains a lot of extras that you cannot purchase elsewhere. There are fold out posters, maps of Gotham, specs for Batman's toys such as the Tumbler, GCPD stickers, police case files, so many extras to list! This is a must have for any true Batman fan.

A wonderful description of the tools, profiles, and history of Nolan's Batman

December 15, 2012

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

This is a must-have for any fan of Nolan's Batman trilogy. All of the gadgets Batman uses in the movies are shown, explained (some with diagrams) and elaborated on. Batman's vehicles and Batcave are explained in-depth (with removable blueprints providing a nice touch), some basic Batman psychology is brought to light, and case files are included on many villians and heroes. Some wonderful props are thrown in as well, such as; the Joker's playing cards, "I Believe in Harvey Dent" campaign stickers, and many others.
Pricewise, buying it off amazon was a huge deal! I went to Barnes and Noble and saw the same book for $40! Here I purchased it for only $20. I highly recommend it to any Nolan Batman fan.

Dark Knight

May 14, 2014

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

I got this book expecting it was factory sealed but it wasn't,very disappointing as to how I got the boo. But as far as book's contents are concerned, like the other "Manual" book from Insight Editions, this makes you think that the characters and the events existed if you are that geek enough but for a regular fan this is a great piece of movie memorabilia. From the suit design, the weapons, the tumbler's conception, the "Bat", through the blueprints for the Bat Cave and other Batman related material, this oozes with awesomeness. The character insights, the files for some of them are also astounding.

Buy it from Amazon Prime or other reliable sellers and yes I recommend this book for any Batman fan out there.
