DC High Volume: Batman is an American superhero audio drama podcast series based on the DC Comics superhero Batman.[3]
The weekly serialised podcast adapts seminal comics from the Batman canon, Batman: Year One by writer Frank Miller and artist David Mazzucchelli, as well as Batman: The Long Halloween and Batman: Dark Victory by writer Jeph Loeb and artist Tim Sale.[4][3][5][6]
Plot
[edit]Episodes 1–4 of High Volume adapt Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli's Batman: Year One, a story that follows Bruce Wayne's first year as the vigilante Batman and James Gordon's struggles navigating Gotham City as an honourable man working amongst a corrupt police force.[3]
Episodes 5–17 adapt Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale's Batman: The Long Halloween, which centres around Batman, Gordon and Harvey Dent's efforts to catch a mysterious killer known as Holiday. The story culminates with Harvey Dent's scarring, both mentally and physically, and his transformation into Two-Face.[3][6]
Episodes 18-30 adapt Loeb and Sale's Batman: Dark Victory, the direct sequel to The Long Halloween. It follows Batman, trying to catch another serial killer 'Hangman' and taking on a child protégé, 'Robin'.[7][8][4][5][9]
