"Michael Uslan is one of the true legends of Hollywood! Without him, superhero movies would not be where they are today and graphic novel?based IPs would not be dominating the global box office. His decades-long fight to bring the true Batman to the big screen is the perfect example of how 'persistence' is that primary talent needed to achieve goals that most would think impossible. I hope this book helps inspire a new generation of producers as much as Michael has inspired me."—Dimitri "Vegas" Thivaios, award-winning artist and producer
"Batman's Batman is a refreshing reminder that there are heroes among us, those who refuse to compromise their vision for a quick payday. Uslan's dedication to his vision of Batman as a dark, damaged angel of the night—and his willingness to fight for 10 years to see that vision realized—is a testament to his character, which was molded by his extraordinary family, and propelled him from the suburbs of New Jersey to the halls of Hollywood power."—Kevin Conroy, the definitive voice of Batman from Batman: The Animated Series
"Great enterprises often take an equally great amount of time to come to fruition.The Greeks had laid siege to Troy for ten years, at a cost of many lives, before Odysseus got the bright idea to hide a few men inside a big wooden horse.And Michael Uslan spent an equal amount of time—from 1979 to 1989—on his own personal crusade to get a high-budget, adult-worthy film about Batman onto the big screen. Both men—the canny king of Ithaca and the New Jersey 'Boy Who Loved Batman'—deserve to be remembered and celebrated for a job well done!"—Roy Thomas, former editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics and co-creator of Wolverine

"Michael's passion and vision took a 21st-century no-brainer, where we have half a dozen actors playing Batman in various podcasts, films, and animated series, and forged it into existence in a time when no one believed it was a wise investment. Michael's shadow looms large over the entire Batman legacy. And from this Riddler's perspective, I'm very grateful."—John Glover, Tony Award?winning actor and The Riddler inBatman: The Animated Series
