Year One distances itself from the more extravagant excesses of the Batman franchises. Few of Batman's rogues are active at this point in his career. Selina Kyle is present, but Miller infamously overhauled her origin to make Selina a prostitute inspired by batman's vigilante actions. One of the only disappointing aspects of the story is that Selina's role doesn't amount to more in the end. The conclusion is also a bit underwhelming relative to the rest of the book. But neither of these complaints do much to diminish Year One's status as a gripping and highly influential Batman drama.

In 2005, Christopher Nolan began his series with the reboot film Batman Begins, which draws inspiration from "Year One" and other stories. [3] Batman Begins and its sequel The Dark Knight are set during the same timespan and adopt several elements directly from the graphic novel. Major characters like Commissioner Loeb, Detective Flass and Carmine 'The Roman' Falcone are featured prominently in Batman Begins. Film critic Michael Dodd argued that with each major motion picture focused on the Dark Knight's origins, the odes and references to the Year One comic increased. Comparing Mask of the Phantasm with Batman Begins he noted that "...Phantasm was a Batman story with Year One elements, while Batman Begins was a Year One story with added features". [26] The film's end scene, with Gordon revealing the Joker's arrival in Gotham, mirrors the end of Year One.
