Anyone read it, or do you people avoid it? The description sounds like it would be fantastic. I just love the premise. I was pretty much done with Miller because he's so overrated, but I could easily see this being his best work ever. Unwavering in the face of evil.

They say it was published Sept 28. I only heard of it because of the Geek Chique Daily email. Well, and the Midtown Comics newsletter. But I never knew of it before today.

I have a feeling retailers are avoiding it or something.

It's a hilarious train wreck.

Also it's so obvious that it was originally a Batman comic that it's hilarious. He changed NOTHING except names and costumes.

Was it an enjoyable read? **** yeah, just like his All-Star Batman and Robin. But like that book, it's also atrocious.

The days where Miller books were great reads AND great comics are long gone.

I was pretty much done with Miller because he's so overrated

Miller has been chastised as a joke for almost a decade now, after DKSA and ASB&R were so horrendous.

Dark Knight Strikes again does NOT have the enjoyment through absurdity factor, BTW, it's just plan bad.

A train wreck how? I mean I'm OK with it seeming like Batman. I know that's what he was developing it as all that time. DC probably said they wouldn't publish it so he had to change the hero. It is a fun read, though? I want to really feel vindication reading this thing.
