Batman: The Dark Knight Returns

Frank Miller's genre-defining graphic novel celebrates its 30th year anniversary with a new edition.

Writer/artist Frank Miller completely reinvents the legend of Batman in this saga of a near-future Gotham City gone to rot, 10 years after the Dark Knight's retirement. Forced to take action, the Dark Knight returns in a blaze of fury, taking on a whole new generation of criminals and matching their level of violence. He is soon joined by a new Robin - a girl named Carrie Kelley, who proves to be just as invaluable as her predecessors.

Hailed as a comics masterpiece, The Dark Knight Returns remains one of the most influential stories ever told in comics, with its echoes felt in all media forms of DC's storytelling. Collects issues #1-4.
