Frank Miller and Scott Snyder The greatest Batman author from the past and the greatest from the present.
We've had Before Watchmen and Sandman Overture recently from DC Comics, but there's one seminal work of the eighties that's been missing from the sequelitis that has affected DC Comics' greatest work.
Of course, The Dark Knight Returns by Frank[...]
It's interesting to see as the character progresses where he went from the original design to the more campy then when the yellow circle as added and Neal Adams came on board and then Frank Miller to know You can easily tell the tone of the comic by these samples from the 75-year history.

You would think by now that a group calling themselves Cinema Sins would have already gotten around to a movie called Sin City... but with upcoming
(I really do want to write F.F…); Mike Mignola's Hellboy; Frank Miller's Sin City, The Dark Knight Returns I often start people who never read a comic off with The Dark Knight saying, "If you don't get this, you probably don't get comics." There's also an 80's graphic novel called Blood by Jon Muth[...]
Those five seconds that you get with Mike Mignola or the whole team on the Star Wars books or a lesser known creator you're meeting for the first time, but he's sitting up there on the same stage that Frank Miller is going to be on, and you get to interact with him for a[...]
Frank Miller recast his Robin as a punk girl I recast mine as a black kid.
Now, I want to bring up something tangentially related to that… something that most readers (outside of our letter column) haven't seemed to pick up on… is that Simon Cooke isn't really the main "hero" of the book[...]

He's talking to the audience… playing around…
Director Robert Rodriguez and writer Frank Miller are walking onto the stage Miller looks dapper in his hat.
Rodriguez saw that Miller was doing breathtaking visuals and Rodriguez didn't see why he couldn't take a movie and turn it into Frank's work Comics and movies don't have to be separate,[...]
Which artists have influenced you the most – from both sides of the Atlantic?
PS: My biggest influence is probably Frank Miller, whose Daredevil and later The Dark Knight Returns and Sin City permanently got lodged in my brain Superhero noir! The Devil's Concubine is heavily influenced by Risso's art in 100 Bullets, another great American[...]
So there's something of childhood rekindled in the experience of Dark Horse's newly released Robocop Versus The Terminator Gallery Edition of the work of Frank Miller and Walt Simonson as first released 20 years ago That's equally appropriate when you're dealing with two titans of comics, whose work makes you feel a little dwarfed anyway, but[...]

Already given a premium editorial freedom in terms of the grim content of his Spider-Man issues, Todd McFarlane's Spawn wasn't hugely different, but did contain a lurid and pitch-black aesthetic that also owed a bit to Frank Miller and Watchmen While I like to think I was smart enough to avoid some trends, like the[...]
The Dark Knight shows a world that's incredibly cynical but still just barely capable of hope.
