    I was just looking around on Barnes & Noble, and I just found the The Dark Knight Rises novelization, which is being written by Trek author and BBS poster Greg Cox. Just thought the other poster here might be interested in this.

    Good for him! A big movie novelization should be nice and lucrative.

    Now, Greg: Tell us what happens!:)

    Also that movie title has just the right amount of innuendo for my liking.

    Congratulations Greg! Probably the only way someone on the outside could get access to the locked down script too! :)

    ^ Out of curiosity, which Last Stand are you ignoring?

    Yep, by longtime Batman comics writer/editor Dennis O'Neil.

    @Thrawn: The only Last Stand worth ignoring...X-Men: The Last Stand :) As mentioned Denny O'Neil wrote the novelization for "The Dark Knight" and "Batman Begins".

    Cool. Wasn't showing up when I searched Barnes & Noble's book section for "The Dark Knight", but there you go.

    Gotcha.

    I'm really looking forward to this. I haven't read the novelizations of the other two Nolan Batman movies, but I'm pretty sure I'll be reading this one now.

    I imagine we can't get answers on even broad questions like, "do you know the story yet?" or "do you think it's any good?"

    (Can we?)

    I'm guessing Greg can't say anything about the film until it is out or the book it out. Like I said, the script has been in lockdown just as most of Nolan's recent films have been so he's probably one of the very few outside of Warner Bros and DC Ent who has actually read the script, or at least has access to it. Lucky guy :)

    The secrecy around these movies is amazing. I work at DC Comics, and nobody here knows anything about it either. Which is actually...kinda cool.
