UC Nomad - Batman The Dark Knight Returns

 Years after a forced retirement, Bruce Wayne, now in his fifties, broods, embittered by alcohol and retaining little faith in the human species. But Gotham City's plunge into crime and despair will push the misanthropic billionaire to once again don the cape and mask of the vigilante Batman. Hunted by the police and the government, the Dark Knight then leads his last savage horde. Batman - The Dark Knight Returns marks both the pinnacle of Frank Miller 's work on the character and the conclusion of his first fifty years spent in fight against crime.

Supported by the aggressive inking of Klaus Janson and the warm colors of Lynn Varley, Frank Miller literally resurrects a pop culture icon. A die-hard and uncompromising treatment which plunges the hero into the abyss of old age and decline before offering him a triumph with Wagnerian accents.
