A review by tawfek
The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller
3.0
i have been reading this for a few days now
and i can tell you its poorly executed but its still damn fine
ignore all the wrongs really
the mutants
the joker's death i mean like finally !!!
batman beating up superman and getting away with it leaving a grieving Clark Kent
its damn fine i tell you
we know how good batman is with his disappearing act from the movies
but this was before the movie
this graphic novel was actually in the days that all comic books companies where in a really awkward position they have a certain recipe for comics and it sells and they don't want to improve their recipe they don't want to experiment with the world they have under their hands
or maybe they didn't even realize that there was more to this than just your plain old adventures of the heroes who never age and the comic book series that will never end
and i am also glad that they made this into 200 pages comic book even tho i think if it was 150 it was going to be much better
one more thing i didn't like was the art it wasn't the art that will make you on the edge of your seat really it was the story and what a story it was
i read the graphic novel and i read the original planned 48 pages which were pretty good but not as good ofc as what we have in our hands
and the lettering really didn't make it easy to tell who is talking and when or was it the switching between talking characters
overall its an epic that i would like to read with a different art team not sure if we can hope for a more refined writing as well it would be a true masterpiece then
