Description
"Batman: The Dark Knight Returns" and its sequel, "The Dark Knight Strikes Again" are ground-breaking syntheses of comic-book icons and modern cinematic sensibilities, which redefined an American myth and reshaped the face of modern graphic novels. Now, they're back...to inspire a new generation! This oversized, slipcased double-hardcover edition presents both Frank Miller classics in glorious full colour, and includes Miller's scripts and bonus material! Batman's struggles with a new breed of criminal, the training of a new Robin, and his fateful final encounters with Superman, Two-Face and The Joker are all woven together to mark a warrior's mythic rite of passage.
