Genre: Action / Adventure / Superheroes Year Published: 1986 Year Read: 2012 Series: Batman Publisher: DC Comics It is 1960s “Batman” vs. 1980s “Batman!” Guess which one will win! Introduction: For many years, I have actually grown up with the darker version of Batman when I was ...
This is #2 on IGN's list of The 25 Greatest Batman Graphic Novels and I have to admit, I can see why. This is a different Batman from most of the other Batman comics I've read. This Batman isn't afraid to kill, to do damage. In general, this Batman gave no f**ks at all. Perhaps this Batman reminded ...
Before Christopher Nolan came alone and further redefined the idea of superheroics, Frank Miller was doing well enough to keep Batman fresh and interesting in his own way. The Dark Knight Returns tops my list of best graphic novels ever written for what it did for the genre, what it did for Batman a...
I'm rating this having been told this is only part of a serial. I won't be reading the rest of the serial until it's finished because a) I don't have enough patience or attention span to read a WIP, and b) I'm pissed off that I bought this without the author or publisher allowing me to make an infor...

The final face off between Batman and Superman was completely stupid. For god's sake, couldn't they just talk and agree that Batman d...
Green Arrow: "That's my whole point... it's like Darwinism or something... we're gradually weeding out all the just-plain-average goons, gradually improving the strain..."superstar Alan Moore visited the DC Universe many times - and tore shit up with each visit. this graphic novel collects his takes...
Talk about dark... This was super intense, and Mr. Whisper is horrifying despite a somewhat normal appearance. Might have to be in my Top 5 favorite Batman graphic novels.
Huh. Somewhat let-down by this.Now, before I go any further, this rating is based on my experience with the book. I realize that this comic had a major influence over Batman and the comic-book industry in general. Without this book, we wouldn't have the Batman we know and love today, with his dark a...
