c.		There are many elements from various Batman graphic novels, either verbatim or slightly recast. In The Long Halloween, Batman, Gordon, and Dent fake Dents death. In The Dark Knight, Gordons death is faked. Also in The Long Halloween, Batman poses as a SWAT officer. In the movie, Gordon does. The Jokers reference at the end of the film to "pushing Dent over the edge" mirrors his social experiment with Gordon in The Killing Joke, in which The Joker attempts to drive Gordon insane by making him have a really bad day. A lot of the interaction between Batman and The Joker is taken from The Long Halloween, specifically the interrogation scene in the film. Its reminiscent of the end of The Long Halloween and also is similar to elements of The Dark Knight Returns. Finally, the copycat Batmen are clearly inspired by The Sons of The Batman from The Dark Knight Returns. In addition, in The Killing Joke the Joker explains if he "had a past, it would be multiple choice." This is referenced when the Joker tells two different stories about the origin of his scars.
d.		In July 2006, the PBS series "History Detectives" aired a story about the discovery of a section of this long-lost film. Running only 22 seconds, the segment was preserved and restored by the Library of Congress.
