This story has some serious Godfather vibes to it, and that's one of the reasons I love it.
Logan Smith ikr that's one of the things that makes it so great IMO :)
Logan Smith you too I love it while drinking coffee
Logan Smith which one
fun fact: the writer said he made the falcone family inspired by godfather. that must be why you feel the resemblence
@@itskingpakal Just turn the first page and Falcone basically looks like Don Corleone from the Godfather
I love how April fools day he fools riddler into thinking he will be killed
Probably one of, if not, my favorite part of the book.
It was funny how holiday took April fools day seriously
Someone explain that scene to me, the holiday who shot at Riddler wasn't the real Holiday and instead someone working for Falcone right?
That way he could scare Riddler into letting everyone know that Falcone was looking for holidays' identity.
This has to one of the best Batman stories along with Killing Joke and Dark Knight Returns imo. The element of mystery just keeps you guessing. I'm surprised they haven't adapted it into animation yet.
Sebastian Joseph how is this comment longer(8 minutes) than the time it was uploaded (3mins)
Sebastian Joseph god I hope they do
Tat would be an amazing movie
TDKR is overrated as fuck. Ugly art, poorly written story, generic Superman, and Joker killing himself was stupid.
Killing Joke is mediocre at best. People just love to talk about how great it was, but if you pit another name in place of Alan Moore's then people wouldn't give the book a second thought. It's like when Stephen King writes a boring or bad book. Nobody wants to be the guy to say it isn't great.
Yea i Wonder
My interpretation of this is that Hilda was killing until New Year's, when Harvey failed to kill Alberto. Since Alberto escaped, he started committing the Holiday killings, particularly Maroni's men, the people in Maroni's restaurant, Maroni's father, the coroner, Carla and Maroni himself. Afterwards, Dent only killed Falcone and Vernon Fields.
So basically:
Gilda: First Halloween - Christmas
Harvey: New Year's and Second Halloween
Alberto: Valentine's Day - Labor Day
But how would Gila know to suddenly stop at the same time Alberto decided to take over? The whole ending is such a convoluted mess.
Maybe it was Harvey all along and that he made Alberto his patsy. Gilda maybe hallucinate the whole thing to cope with Harvey Dent becoming Two Face.
*SPOILERS*
I really don't see why you left this out Benny...
Gilda Dent, wife of Harvey Dent, confesses (in a private monologue) that she was the original Holiday, who murdered the first seven victims. While burning the supposed evidence of her crime, she claimed that she began the murders because Harvey could not settle down and raise a child with her until the Falcone crime family was finally destroyed. In Gilda's confession, she mentions that on New Year's Eve, she had heard of Alberto's murder at sea. Afterwards, Harvey returned home with wet hair, stating that it had been snowing even though he was wearing a hat. She took this as a sign that Harvey himself had taken up killing Falcone family members. As a result, she stopped killing and took a passive role, waiting for Harvey to finish the job so they could settle down.
Thank you for explaining
Except for the fact that her story does not add up. The killing of the Irish Gang took place when she was hospitalized after the explosion. She could not have killed them. Also, how the hell would she be able to walk up to the mob and start shooting them from close range?
Aww, what a sweet couple! Guess their kid will grow up to be a serial killer too.
Falserizuffer Ezek she did say that she escaped from the hospital, but you’re right, the bomb left her in a wheelchair, so it would be pretty hard to kill people
Cause that twist honestly kinda sucks
So this might be the New Robert Batman movie huh, I like it
Cabal Commander I hope they have a twist. It’s an adaptation anyway. It’s gonna be cool.
Really makes me wonder who will play the Joker in this? I hope they find a way to bring Joaquin, I saw Joker this past weekend and he’s fantastic.
ZXT but the joker releases October 4th?
The ExplosiveGamer It premiered early at The Toronto International Film Festival, which I was at
@@zxt350 don't think joker is gonna be in this
Who’s here after finding out this is the plot for Matt Reeves Batman
U know it
Andre Robinson adaptation. Not straight plot. It’s got its detective style story from Long Halloween
Usayd Khan they’re looking for ppl to play the same roles
It wont be a direct adaptation, it takes inspiration
I wouldn't expect it to be exact. Technically dark knight was was inspired by it as well (according to Nolan on some aspects of the film), combining year one and long Halloween would be weird if there still doing the origin...
Finally the best damn Batman story ever is getting some respect
MR.DC COMICS YEAH 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
You can see direct inspirations for the Dark Knight movie.
*Can’t wait for the animated Batman:Long Halloween movie to come out soon.* 😊
My favorite batman story :)
Is it really that good????
@@TheDesertking12 yeah just watched it
They changed some stuff ttho.
Good movie just not a good adaptation
The quintessential Gotham crime story. I wonder if Batman ever figured out that it was really Gilda Dent who was the original Holiday and just never told anyone. Calendar Man did, and Batman has never not solved a case before, and I can see why he'd leave Gilda alone.
I am back here after DC dropped Matt Reeves The Batman teaser. I'm vengeance! 🌚
The Long Halloween is being animated, said to be divided into 2 part movies like the dark knight returns
it looks so good
After watching the whole video, think back to calendar man.
You're welcome for that revelation 😊
Ghost Hyperhex wow... He's gave the answer n they still didn't know what he meant and two face gave another answer and that actually made you think.... Wow.. Harvey was still.. Wrkn even tho he went crazy... Awesome
How'd Calender Man...of all people,figure it out?! Wow *mind blown*
Lemme ask the question we're all bringing up. Did Batman know? I would say we'll never know because the author didn't say but I think he did. From the fact that he wouldn't answer Jim when he was questioned means he entertained the possibility but maybe he just didn't tell because he believed it was Harvey's fault. I've seen enough NTR to know that you have to give your wife a certain amount of attention or things can go bad REAL fast.
James Wolf ntr?
Ghost Hyperhex Wait I’m confused now, so the two holiday killers was hilda and Harvey. The couple
Truly one of the greatest Batman storys of all time and one of the greatest comics of all time IMO thanks so much for making this awesome video Comicstorian and Happy Halloween!!!!!! :)
cheez , Yeah I watch emergency awesome besides that were else have you found me? :)
Luke Skywalker the 2nd u 2 man😁😁😁
cheez , Oh OK :)
Luke Skywalker the 2nd what about dc metal?
Tom and Jerry
who else watched the first 2-3 minutes of this video and thought how some elements from this plot made it into the Dark Knight Movie
There were more than just few plot elements that made it into the movie. Harvey Dent's fall from grace is the biggest element that both stories have in common.
the dark Knight is based on this comic
I didn't know this was inspired to make the dark knight till i saw 10 things you didn't know about Commando
@@2k1caleb as well The Killing Joke
iostboy oh then that will be great
I love the comically large gun the Joker has
I'm calling it at 5:37 . It's calendar man. Putting other holidays after a murder? Cmon!
Edit: just finished it, I feel stupid.
wow he has calendar dates all over the place ...who wouldn't know?..its so freaking hard to figure it out..thank you for that
I thought it was good it's hard to believe that it was Gilda that did all the holiday killings
Gilda did only the 1st 3 killings. Harvey and Alberto alternates after that.
Spoilers goddammit!
You literally clicked on the video knowing that you will see spoilers in the comments
@@gato23 I kind of forgot. Did Harvey attempt at Alberto and failed and then Alberto seized the moment afterwards? Or did Harvey, as Two Face, only did the last two?
I recall how Gilda noticed that Harvey said something about wet hair yet he was wearing a hat. So did Alberto wanted faked his death from the start?
@@gato23 Yeah, there is a commonly known loophole with that though because during the Irish gang killing, Gila was in hospital. I still love the possibility that she was one of the killers though. It's a mystery that is still kinda unsolved, yet it is immensely satisfying. It makes so much sense that Alberto, who was unappreciated his whole life, would claim killings that he didn't do (aka the ones that Gila/maybe Harvey did).
It's been so long since they made a decent Batman story like this, I thought DC had made a policy against it. Thanks for going back and covering the good ones.
I remember reading this a couple years back, and how well executed the mystery element of the story was. I didn’t stop reading from page 1 to the end because the mystery was so engaging
Who’s here after the Batman official trailer
🙋🏾♂️🙋🏾♂️
This guy 🙌🏽
I'm vengeance
Finally, I've been waiting for this for so long. Definitely my favourite Batman story
Aden Burn Me too man it truly is one of the greatest Batman story's ever IMO and its my most favorite too :)
Knight fall is my favorite.🤎
This along with Hush and UTRH are my favorite Batman stories
I agree, Batman UTRH, Batman: Hush, Batman: The Long Halloween, and Batman TDKR are Batman Stories that will always light a burning fire in my heart.
I love the use of shadows and silhouettes in this story's art.
Who’s here after knowing that we got 2 days left before the animation comes out?
Lord Palpatine: Do it
Then suddenly his house explodes
The Senate ♥️

That twist though.

Who’s here because of the upcoming Robert Pattinson Batman movie???
Me. I just wanted the know the comic story
Not exactly like this
This comic has something so special that none of the others have. The atmosphere, the holidays, the brilliant story, the aesthetic and the characters. The fact that The Batman will be based on this is truly incredible.
Benny, your Joker laugh is fantastic! It has a beautiful Hamill-esque feel to it! Great job dude!
Time stamp?
RIP to the man and the voice that brought me so many stories when I didnt have time to read and collect
Will deeply miss you Ben. You made comics a lot more accessible for me and easier for me to process through all your videos. Hope you are happy and at peace wherever you are.
"An effective silencer"
And there goes my suspension of disbelief.
I mean, if you are fine with Baterangs but nipple silencers are too much then I don't know what to tell you.
@@bigtastyben5119 Lmao just the phrase "Nipple silencers" cracks me up.
@@karawithgun8148 i mean, whenever i see nipples I do tend to shut up so ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Meanwhile in the same universe the glasses hide Clark Kent's identity.
Radin V his glasses are made from some rare Kryptonian crystal (probably from the window on his pod) that send out rays that subliminally control your mind.
this was my first graphic novel and my go to recommendation for anyone looking for a place to start reading comics. i love this book
Who’s here after watching the new trailer
This bout to get a lot more views
*BOONK GANG SQUISHY GANG*
Im watching this because my brother said the new batman movie is gonna be based off of this.
So basically Harvey and his wife Gilda was the ones who were actually doing the murders Edit I see now Gilda was the first holiday killer and Alberto was the second
Here after watching The Long Halloween Part 2
Same.
I had a load of things to do at home today, put on a playlist of your videos while doing them and the time flew by while I listened. Thanks for the entertainment great job👍👍
This has got to be without a shadow of a doubt the best Batman story
I absolutely love this book, I just read it again and still few comics can get me so emotional and invested
Damn....now I realize this is a slight inspiration for Nolans Dark Knight
Such a great story! When I worked at the theatre we partnered with a local shop to give copies away during some of the Batman showings. I got my copy that way as well. Such a great read.
This is gonna be matt reeves batman movie im lovin it
Lets just hope it's executed well
RedHotg Jedi adaptation. It’s not gonna be a straight copy
I think they will take some parts of the story to the movies. But not the whole story. And I also think that The Riddler or Penguin is gonna be the main villian, maybe Two face but they will focus more on him as Harvey dent so I think he will be just a supporting character.
It's not a direct adaptation.
after seeing last apes movie m really scared.
20:54 yeah that is really a Classic Batman Story
I saw the movie four times now. I dont think I'll ever grow tired of the new animation style in future animated DC movies honestly. I loved every minute of seeing the mystery story progress on who Holiday is. I know Alberto Falcone was Holiday in the comics (spoiler alert), but after watching it I suspect it's actually Harvey Dent. Talking about two heads are better than one. You could tell that Dent has a lot of personal vendetta when working to bringing down the Mob. I am convinced that the Holiday killer is a split personality of Harvey, just building up to his eventual downfall to becoming Two-Face.
I'd buy SOME of the deaths being Harvey, but not Johnny Viti's in the film. Remember, he was going to be a key witness in their case against Falcone, so there's no way Harvey killed him. Someone else, maybe including Gilda sure, but not Harvey
Who's here after the trailer?
Meeee 😂😂😂
Read this in middle school, I shouted “No Way!” When I got to the end in the middle of class
This video should be getting some huge traction in the coming weeks with the new movie coming out.
While he’s only in this story briefly, I still think Joker’s appearance here, and in Dark Victory as well, are some of his best appearances in comics. It’s nothing complicated, you just get Joker doing what he does best, with a fantastic writer, and a wonderful character design to back it all up.
12:35 Rip Luigi who will help Mario now?
Cesar Diaz wow.... XD
Yoshi
Toad.
Not even funny
😶😶
I never understood the “expect the unexpected” thing. If I expect the unexpected that would mean I expect the expected so that means that I still don’t expect the unexpected but according to the quote I should expect it, but again, doing that means I expect the expected.
So now I have no idea.
Ablopez LMFAO
Just be open to spontaneity dude!
One of the favourite stories of all time.Thank you Comicstorian for uploading this ❤
I loved this so much!!! The art is just amazing imo
Man ,I love this story, Benny you have to do Dark Victory next.
my favorite batman story
more so than year one, the dark knight returns, and even the killing joke
Thank you so much for making a video about this classic story
Had to drop by to get some Knowledge on the Long Halloween.
Definitely didn't disappoint!
Your channel is awesome!
Awesome video
It's amazing the impact this comic had on TDK (2008)...all the little references are A1. The film was a really good adaptation of its source material albeit not a page to page recreation but good adaptation from one medium to another.
Good job on this video. A few people have covered it but this is my favourite so far.
I love you guys, I always enjoy your batman stories and I havnt even watched it but I know it's gonna be fantastic
This is one of my favorite Batman stories of all time. The story is great, the writing is great, the art is great...It’s just GREAT!!!!
I believe this is one of the best Batman stories written. Keep the drama up Benny.😂
I really loved the Long Halloween storyline, glad to see you've done a video on it :)
Loved this video! Always love watching the Comicstorian videos! Want more Detective Comics and DC Metal videos!
Who's here after the movie got announced?
Right here!
I'd love to see more of the sub plots from that comic series.
RIP Tim Sale. Thank you for bringing your artistic talent to this story.
Thank you soo soo much Benny, i love this story arc i was waiting for it, for a narration from you some day, you made my day .. i am Greatful & thankful 😁
I love this book. I have the hard cover and I got it signed by Tim Sale too. :D
this is by far the best batman story ever...detective work, check...action, check, twist ending check!
Honestly I liked Dark Victory even more. It was pretty much the same thing but idk
I literally just got done reading this. Really one of the best batman stories
Yeeees! I was hoping for this one to be made! Thanks Comicstorian!
I thought this comic was supposed to be the best showing of Batman’s detective side but he didn’t really even do that much detective work in the comic
Because this is year two. The best Batman detective story is Batman: Hush.
I felt the same.
Honestly, Batman felt pretty incompetent in this story.
The Batman will be based on this story
Have you been under a rock? Matt reeves said that it's not a direct adaptation. Online takes inspiration.
I've waited for you to do this story for so long by far my favorite story
Excellent video! You did a great job on this . 👏 nice job doing the voices as well!
They should reboot the DCU and transition this into the first movie to open the new DCU. This would be a great opening to introduce Batman kind of like how Iron Man 1 did for Marvel. Everybody loves Batman he's a great person to start off with obviously you can't have everything exactly the same because I don't know how a whole year would transition into a movie but it would be really cool to see
come thru, Matt Reeves' The Batman 2021.
Matt Reeves' The Batman 2022
One of my most favourite Batman stories of all time.
One of my Favorite Batman Stories
Thx comicstorian
She did a great job bring her back whenever possible, awesome video
I hope an Arkham game is made in the future based around this story. A game like Origins that takes place a little later in the timeline around Asylum.
Who's here after watching part one?
Who else thought the holiday killer was calendar man😅🙏🏾
The new Batman movie has the vibes of the long Halloween and the court of owls. I hoped so because that trailer was f’ing amazing.
One of my favourite Batman stories, great mystery. You missed some of the most touching parts when Batman and TwoFace each share a meal with Solomon Grundy, even with the cuts still great.
PLEASE WE NEED THE WAR OF JOKES AND RIDDLES
JD Studios YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!
Yes pls
JD Studios yeet
Yes that was a really good one
This was the first comic I ever owned until some spainish kid stole it
Hey gringo, thanks for the read o/
So when y'all aint stealing jobs, you're stealin comics
And banging white women, ese.
WHAT
lmfao
Thank you Benny, you make my day! this story should be a movie.
I needed this after reading this for the 5th time yesterday. Great Video!
I bought it. All I don't like with the comic is the drawings. But overall, great for my collection!
Veeeery late reply, but honestly the art is fantastic and so dark, which is fitting so well into the Batman universe.
@@jeremy9951 Yeah, I liked it too bro 🤷♂️
Rest in Peace Ben. You are very missed by many.
Well we're getting a movie based on this
this is my favorite batman story ..... thanks for bringing it to life
Thanks so much Benny beeen waiting for this one
Here's what I think: I don't mean to nitpick, this is a great essay on the plot, but could you maybe lead with crediting the writer and artists? I skipped through, did you mention who created it anywhere? I didn't catch it...
It's a sin that you haven't covered this until now
