comment
Batman: Noël is a standalone Batman comic written and illustrated by Lee Bermejo. Acting as Yet Another Christmas Carol, the story follows Batman in the role of Ebenezer Scrooge, sick with pneumonia on a snowy Christmas day as he tries to bring the Joker to justice.Unfortunately, his heart has hardened after the death of his partner Jason Todd to the point where he considers potential criminals dangerous and uses much more force than necessary in detaining a put-on henchman, Bob, who only turned to crime to pay his ill son's medical bills.And so, just like Scrooge of old, Batman is visited by three 'spirits' who can help him change his ways before it's too late—and maybe stop the Joker and save Bob while he's at it.

Evil Has a Bad Sense of Humor: It's the Joker we're talking about. When he goes into Bob's house and Tim thinks he's Santa, he gives the iconic laugh as a joke.

Yet Another Christmas Carol

comment
Yet Another Christmas Carol: Much like the final Batman: Haunted Knights story, this story has Batman in the role of Scrooge. This time, though, Jason Todd is Jacob Marley, Catwoman is Christmas Past, Superman is Christmas Present, and the Joker is Christmas Future, which helps Bruce's heart soften and change his ways.

comment
Adaptational Modesty: As usual for modern depictions of Robin. However, instead of slapping one of Tim Drake's suit on a character or creating a new costume, the comic just modified the classic Robin suit to give it long pants instead of shorts.

Alternative Character Interpretation: Done in-universe by the narrator, who speculates that in Dickens' original tale there was no Christmas Future and Scrooge was having a near-death experience.

comment
Lighter and Softer: Lee Bermejo's work, especially when paired up with Brian Azzarello, is known to be very dark, violent, and sometimes disturbing, as Joker can attest. Meanwhile, Noël, while sometimes dipping its toes into the darkness, is ultimately an uplifting story on the same level as its inspiration. Bermejo's artwork is even noticeably more warm and colorful than his usual work.

Bad Future: The Christmas Future segment is Batman seeing visions of a future where the Wayne fortune is sold off, the police are even more corrupt and use violent methods even against petty offenders, most of Gotham is overrun in riots, and Commissioner Gordon is arrested and jailed without parole for his collaboration with Batman, who by then has come to be seen as a criminal by the legal system.
