This is an outstanding book for both avid DC Comics fans and newbies to the genre. It’s oversized, which means there is no squinting or eye-crinkling to see the exquisite details in the illustrations or read the text bubbles. The paper is some of the thickest out there...

The Black Dahlia is one of many graphic novels in this series, and Geary does justice to telling the story. If the rest of the collection is this well done and this interesting, the series would be a good addition to the library shelf—one guaranteed to raise questions and probably be pirated.
