  • The Dark Knight Strikes Again is Frank Miller's 2001 sequel to the legendary Dark Knight Returns, from DC Comics. With Batman underground and Lex Luthor rising to power, Gotham is a mess... and that's mostly just because of what Frank Miller and Lynn Varley did with this book.
    It's one of the biggest disappointments in comic history, but nearly 25 years after its release, is it still that bad?

    I read it at a time when I thought Frank Miller could do no wrong. Then I thought I just didn't get it and it must be over my head. I had no idea what was going on. I might give it another chance now that I'm much older.

      Na worst comic is the latest punisher series. Made by a writer who hates frank castle and his fans and couldn’t even be original in how they ruined him. Lazy incompetent and boring.
      I’d say crossed also deserves a mention as well as Chris Chans comic.

    Ok, so have you seen the animated adaptation of DKR? It's amazing. But I was thinking, they do all these adaptations of great stories, why not terrible ones? Hear me out, but redoing a bad story like this, but in a new medium with a new perspective, could completely change it into something actually good. I think there's a semblance of a good story in here. It'd be interesting to see if someone could tell it.

  • @notrdy4thisjelly546

    DKR should never have been continued. Strikes again is just insane and awful in my opinion. I was shocked by the constant weird sexual stuff with Carrie (whos 16), the nausiating art, and the audacity to do what it did to Dick Grayson. I think its an irredeemable piece of shit frankly.

    Commenting at the start, but this is one of 2 comics to make me gag and almost throw up trying to read it. The art is so atrociously bad that it gave me that reaction. The only other book to do that is marvel zombies, but that’s cause of the writing from Marvel Zombies series 3-5
