Writer/artist Frank Miller completely reinvents the legend of Batman in this saga of a near-future Gotham City gone to rot, 10 years after the Dark Knight s retirement. Forced to take action, the Dark Knight returns in a blaze of fury, taking on a whole new generation of criminals and matching their level of violence. He is soon joined by a new Robin a girl named Carrie Kelley, who proves to be just as invaluable as her predecessors.
Can Batman and Robin deal with the threat posed by their deadliest enemies, after years of incarceration have turned them into perfect psychopaths? And more important, can anyone survive the coming fallout from an undeclared war between the superpowers or the clash of what were once the world s greatest heroes?
Hailed as a comics masterpiece, The Dark Knight Returns is Frank Miller s (300 and Sin City) reinvention of Gotham s legendary protector. It remains one of the most influential stories ever told in comics, with its echoes felt in all media forms of DC s storytelling. Collects issues #1-4.
Rezension:
"In four groundbreaking issues in late 1986, Miller's DARK KNIGHT RETURNS delighted and enraged comic book classicists by turning Batman--a beloved but gimmicky hero who seemed to have the keys of life forever tucked into his utility belt-into a brooding vigilante, bleak, grim and full of rooftop psychosis." USA Today
"There's never been storytelling quite like this. It took someone who views comics as an art to create it." Washington Post
"Changed the course of comics." Rolling Stone
"It's film noir in cartoon panels." Vanity Fair
"His brutal yet elegant noir renderings, pulpy yet eloquent scripting, and thoroughly uncompromising attitude make him one of the most distinctive voices in comics." Entertainment Weekly
