The Dark Knight Returns
|
| | | A tour de force of powerful storytelling and intense characterization, "Batman: The Dark Knight Returns" is the tale of a tortured man's effort to save a city spiraling into chaos. An aging, time-worn Batman struggles with the acceptance of a new Robin while facing the latest generation of vicious, hyper-violent criminals. Old foes like the Joker and Two-Face add to the maddening mayhem which Batman must face and somehow conquer. Even Batman's relationship with his friend and ally Superman takes a fresh and inventive turn that would have been unthinkable outside of Frank Miller's richly imagined vision of the Dark Knight's future. This tenth anniversary edition features 28 pages of sketches, art, text material and an introduction by the author.
Annotation:
Forced out of a ten-year retirement, Batman makes a valiant comeback in BATMAN: THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS. Old enemies re-emerge and former friends become foes, but along with a new Robin, Carrie Kelly, our hero fights them all to prevent Gotham City's further moral decay. Frank Miller, well known for his SIN CITY and DAREDEVIL work as well, effectively infused new life (and increased darkness) into the Batman series with this collection, his efforts inspiring director Tim Burton's movie adaptations.
