Jason Todd tier Patreon backer Kyle Still asked us to cover Knightfall, and so we decided to do it (and by decided, I mean that we live up to our word). But Knightfall has a nice clean point where we can divide it. Back in the day, when trades were still a rarity, Knightfall was divided into two trades, and so this week we read what was that first trade, called The Broken Bat, along with two of the comics that lead into what is one of the most central Bat events of all time.

Batman: The Vengeance of Bane # 1

Batman: The Sword of Azrael # 1-4

Knightfall Part 1: The Broken Bat (Batman V.1 # 491-497, Detective Comics V.1 # 659-663)
