DC Animated The Dark Knight Returns

It does remind me a bit more of ASB&R than TDKR. Has a bit of a Jim Lee look rather than Miller.

Which is the problem.

Which is the problem.

Don't see why its a problem. Its a good enough looking cover -- one of the few that has been truly iconic looking.

Off topic ... I just read through the last couple of pages of a few threads. You need an "emoticon" intervention.

But it's a generic Batman picture. WB could've done better and stayed truer to the source. What's the point of spending all that money to animate it in a "Frank Miller" style if you're only going to go and toss a generic Jim Lee-ish illustration on the cover.

Cover is as silly as it gets. What's this nonsense about?

 

[Kamandi]

How very odd they've tried to be true to Frank Miller's art for the animation but not the cover.

 

[Matt S]

That cover needs to go.....

 

[Kabukiman]

It's gonna get ripped and put on my NAS anyway, so I don't really care what the cover looks like.

You ripping just a DVD or is there something that rips Blu?

What do you use as a front-end for your NAS to TV?

 

[Buttmunch]

They should have just gone with the same cover the book had. I mean they even had that shot in the trailer, why not use something iconic as that?

 

[soundwave]

If that cover was on any other Batman animated movie it would be fine but as you've all said on Dark Knight Returns it just doesn't fit at all.

Still it will sit on my shelf out of sight so not a huge issue just the spines show & I'll just close my eye's when I take it down to watch it & fumble the disc out blind lol

Pretty awesome parallel to The Dark Knight Rises (and yes, I know the comic was the inspiration for that moment in TDKR)

It's good, but no.

Jeph Loeb writing the best Batman story in any medium? "Unpossible"

BB > Year One
The Long Halloween > TDK
TDKR (film) > TDKR / Knightfall / No Man's Land

MY OPINION BRO!

What's your favourite? Let me guess...

Year One or The Killing Joke?

 

[DiFabio]

My favorite Batman story is the one where Batman punches that one guy in the face.

Oh that one, yeah it was allright. A bit anticlimatic though
