For our money, The Dark Knight is the greatest comic-book movie ever made.
You'd be hard pressed to find another film of the same genre that comes anywhere close to the sheer perfection that was The Dark Knight. As well as being Heath Ledger's greatest role in his sadly short career, it's easily up there with Christian Bale's greatest performances.

We've answered all these and more below. Check it out!
