As per usual, anything that is a side note or not directly on topic will be written in this blue.
Batman is my favorite DC superhero, hands down. I don't read the comics very often, due to the sheer magnitude of them. However, I keep up with the wikipedia/wikias so that I know what is going on.
I was first introduced to Batman through the TV show starring Adam West back when it would air on Saturday mornings on TV Land (Yes, I'm that old.). About seven to eight years later, I started watching Batman: the Animated Series; just as many people have a Doctor (Doctor Who for you old people), I now consider Kevin Conroy to be my Batman.
Later, when Christopher Nolan's Batman debuted, I found it to be very enjoyable and pretty accurate, but still loved BtAS more.
Confession: when the clip of Rob Paulson (Gordon of BtAS) and Kevin Conroy doing the last scene from The Dark Knight released, I may or may not have watched it upwards of fifteen times...
Fast forward four years, and we get Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice...
...Yeah. I'm not going to go into the BvS argument because this intro is already way too long, but suffice it to say that I found Affleck to be an ok, though slightly older, Bruce/Batman.
So when I saw that there was going to be a YA novel based in the DCEU, I was intrigued. When I saw that it was going to be written by Marie Lu, I was so excited that I pre-ordered it from Amazon (which I N E V E R do).
This book was amazing, guys.
