Batman: Year One Concept Artwork

Lots of folks are posting the purported Batman: Year One concept art from Darren Aronofsky and Frank Miller’s project like it’s just recently leaked and never before seen.

First, Klockwork Kugler posted those exact images in October 2010. Second, Aronofsky himself posted a comment on Twitter last week claiming, “none of that year one batman art circling the web originated from mine or frank’s work”. Last, he mentioned the graphic novel idea back in 2011 during an interview with Clothes on Film.

Camille Saint-Saëns - Le Déluge

Camille Saint-Saëns composed Le Déluge (The Flood) in 1875, based on the tale of Noah. While I doubt that Darren Aronofsky and Clint Mansell have plans to remix orchestral music again, like they did with Tchaikovsky and Black Swan. It’s at least fun to listen and day dream, especially as a faux soundtrack to the graphic novels.
