Media Reviews
Amazing. This book is a visual treat. --The New York Times

Simply terrific. --Scripps Howard News Service

The caped crusader channels the gravelly paranoia of Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns while a desperate father working for the Joker lends the story its moral weight and inevitable humanitarian payoff. --Paste Magazine

Absolutely exquisite... I'd be more than happy to add reading Batman: Noel and watching it to my yearly yuletide festivities. --Yahoo! Movies

Bermejo has simply created an instant classic with BATMAN NOEL that is larger than any holiday. --Ain't It Cool News

Surprising, new, gorgeous to look at, and also incredibly heartfelt. So you know, the perfect stocking stuffer. --MTV GEEK

[Bermejo]'s incorporating his unique style to create a fresh kind of Batman tale, lending it a distinctive flavor that would be impossible for any other artist to replicate. --IGN

More than just a regular graphic novel. --UGO

Gorgeously illustrated. --io9

More than a clever entertainment, and does more than just prove that Bermejo is a fine writer. --The Morton Report

Some artists like Bermejo seem to be regarded as having objectively beautiful illustrations. Bermejo is able to take characters we know and love and give them a sinister and realistic twist that makes them pop out of the pages. Batman Noel is worth picking up for the artwork alone. --Bloody_Disgusting.com, Pick of the Week

Gives the classic story the dark edge that's inherent in anything set in Gotham City. --Newsarama

Lush. --Comic Book Resources
