The Dark Knight Strikes Again by Frank Miller
2.0
Coming two decades after the original Dark Knight Returns, this story couldn't help but be disappointing. A fun read, but the art does not hold up in my opinion, and it really seemed like more of a cash-grab than a story that needed to be told. In fact, I could have lived a happy life had this story never seen print. Worth reading if you're a fan of the first one, but not so much otherwise.
2016 RE-READ REVIEW
I stand by my original sentiment - This was pretty craptacular. I can't believe they're doing DK3, and now apparently DK4 as well. Talk about pissing all over your legacy, Mr. Miller...
2019 RE-READ REVIEW
Some parts of the story have actually aged exceptionally well, but for the most-part this book still reads like a mess, only slightly redeemed by the events of DK3. If I could change this to 2.5 stars, I would because that feels like a nice compromise.
