Just days after revealing an exclusive Superman Steelbook Library Collection, Amazon has unveiled a similar box set for Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight Trilogy. Priced at $130 and releasing September 9, The Dark Knight Trilogy Steelbook Library Collection comes with the superb 4K UHD Blu-ray editions of the three movies starring Christian Bale as Batman. You’ll get a batcave’s worth of collectibles with this set, including four stylish steelbook cases and a metal library display case.
Amazon opened preorders for this exciting Batman collection on July 22, the same day it started selling the Superman Library Collection for $130. Both sets are exclusive to Amazon and are likely to sell out. Amazon released an exclusive Sean Connery James Bond Library Collection in June and has an upcoming Nightmare on Elm Street Library Collection. Both of those sold out fast, though it’s worth noting they contain movies that previously weren’t available on 4K.
The Dark Knight Trilogy Steelbook Library Collection (4K Blu-ray)
$130 | Releases September 9 | Amazon Exclusive
Each steelbook case in this collection echoes the artistic direction of The Dark Knight Trilogy, as the covers have a clean but striking image of a character within a batarang-shaped logo. Batman Begins features the Dark Knight himself, The Dark Knight has the late Heath Ledger’s Joker leering at you, and Tom Hardy’s Bane is ready to make a speech on case for The Dark Knight Rises. The fourth steelbook case is gold and features a flock of bats as silhouettes. Inside the case, you’ll find the following physical collectibles:

As mentioned, all four steelbook cases are housed inside of a library case–a high-quality metal display box–featuring the Batman logo. This looks like a pretty awesome collector’s box set for big fans of The Dark Knight Trilogy.
The nine-disc collection contains three 4K discs and six 1080p Blu-ray discs–where you’ll find the bulk of the special features–as well as digital editions you can download and watch on streaming platforms.
The Dark Knight Trilogy Steelbook Library Edition
In terms of on-disc content, this is the same collection as the existing 4K standard edition, which is discounted to $44 (was $75) at Amazon–but the standard doesn’t come with digital versions of the movies. The 4K UHD versions of these three films are superb. Rendered in native 4K (2160p) with support for HDR10 and DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1, the nine-disc collection should be in every Batman fan’s personal library.
