  • Batman: Knightfall is the title given to a major Batman story arc published by DC Comics that dominated Batman-related serial comic books in the spring and summer of 1993. Knightfall is also the umbrella title to the trilogy of storylines that ran from 1993 to 1994. They consisted of "Knightfall", "Knightquest", and "KnightsEnd". The story takes place over approximately six months. Bruce Wayne (Batman) suffers burnout and is systematically assaulted and crippled by a "super steroid"-enhanced genius named Bane. Wayne is replaced as Batman by an apprentice named Jean-Paul Valley, who becomes increasingly violent and unstable, tarnishing Batman's reputation. Eventually, Wayne is healed through paranormal means, and reclaims his role as Batman. Knightfall resulted in long-term ramifications for the Batman mythos, as Batman's trust from the police, public, and fellow superheroes had to be rebuilt. Additionally, Wayne realizes the peril and burden of attempting to work in solitude, leading to the eventual creation of the modern incarnation of the Batman family. The events of Knightfall also led to the resignation of Wayne's loyal butler, Alfred Pennyworth. The entire Knightfall storyline took over a year to complete in the comic book serials, and in later years, the comics were compressed into a series of trade paperbacks, although these paperbacks do not include the Knightquest portion of the story with the exception of Robin: Flying Solo, which contains Robin #1, a part of Knightquest.

  • Batman: Knightfall è una saga a fumetti di Batman, pubblicata dalla DC Comics tra il 1993 e il 1995. Knightfall si riferisce all'intero arco narrativo che descrive come il criminale Bane liberi i reclusi dell'Arkham Asylum e spezzi la schiena a Batman; Bruce Wayne cede il suo ruolo a Jean Paul Valley, che impazzisce, ed in seguito Wayne, ristabilitosi, cerca poi di riprendersi il mantello. Le storie sono state pubblicate in originale principalmente sulle testate Batman e Detective Comics, mentre in Italia su Batman Edizioni Glenat n. 48/49 e 51/52 (i primi otto capitoli) e su Batman Saga, 24 albi editi da PlayPress. I titoli dei capitoli della saga, cioè Knightfall, Knightquest, Knightsearch e KinghtsEnd ("la caduta", "l'enigma", "la ricerca" e "la fine" "del cavaliere") sono composte da parole scritte attaccate, tranne KnightsEnd, scritta in CamelCase, per timore che venisse letta Knight-Send.
