Episode Details

In this episode of Exploring Humanity Through Sci-Fi, we examine Batman: Year One, the animated adaptation of Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli’s seminal comic arc. Directed by Lauren Montgomery and Sam Liu, the film reimagines Gotham not as a playground for capes and villains, but as a decaying city teetering on the edge — where two men, unaware of each other’s mission, begin reshaping its future.

Recorded live at New York Comic Con, Bruce Timm reflects on the challenge of adapting such a grounded, noir-infused story into animation.
