batman year one

Paperback, hardcover, mixed-media format, and a large-format artist edition.

Physical sizes range roughly from 10.0 × 6.5 × 0.5 inches up to 17.0 × 24.3 × 2.25 inches. Weights run from about 0.45 pounds to around 10.0 pounds.

Some large-format and artist editions include original layouts, sketch pages, and other developmental material. At least one edition contains over 40 pages of previously unseen developmental material and presented layouts.

It typically collects Batman issues #404–407.

Artist editions tend to have shorter page counts (example: 144 pages), while standard collected editions or omnibuses are much longer—commonly 320 pages and up to 632 pages.

A large-format artist edition is printed at the original art size (14 × 21 inches) and presents the artist’s full layouts at that scale.
