Batman: The Dark Knight Returns
by Frank Miller
Oh Frank Miller you might now be a batshit looney whose books are entertaining only because of how unbelievably stupid and gonzo they are. But once you where golden.
Nobody writes the apocalypse better then Frank Miller, he captures a horrifying feel as society destroys itself with a mix of apathy, anarchy, and entropy which no one can or even cares to stop. Ronin, Martha Washington, and Sin City all capture this elusive, terrifying, and strangely beautiful tone. But DKR did it the best.
It's great pulp pure and simple (You've gotta love the Mickey Spillane quote on the back) I reread it every once an again and it never fails to deliver the simple, almost transgressive charge of being 14 again and not being able to believe what I'm seeing.
