Batman was A BEAST in The Dark Knight Returns

[@Oddash-lz6kw]

It's amazing how the same man who wrote The Dark Knight Returns went on to do the infamous All-Star Batman and Robin.

@@abiodunsulaiman2297he already was extremely and weirdly patriotic to the point of satire so it doesn’t surprise me. Like Batman holding that body wrapped in an American flag undeniably goes hard, but it’s almost satirical given the context of Batman who’s essentially a justification of vigilantism and militarization of police being a good idea.

That Batman IG post was epic.

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

I get that, as time goes on, newer readers will think this version of Batman is overrated. I mean, he's a brutal, stoic, Machiavellian lunatic who fights for vengeance and justice. That's just who Batman is nowadays. But y'all gotta understand, the Batman that permeated the zeitgeist at the time this came out was Adam West Batman. The comics version was getting a little bit darker and more serious under Dennis O'Neal and the Bat Offices at DC, but we hadn't seen a Batman like this since arguably the late 30's. More arguably, we've never seen a Batman like this ever.

[@Dhampire1976]

Didn't I see you on an alt right channel preaching anti trans retetic? Get lost weirdo 🤣🤣🤣

[@mandalorianhunter1]

Yeah this story was great. I really liked the adaptations, paradies and elements of the story. However, this was the beginning point where Batman beats Superman in a lot of adaptations outside of the comics. The prep time truly started here before "Tower of Babel"

[@dylannichols3577]

Batman really hardly ever beats Superman, it’s wildly over exaggerated. Not to say his prep time isn’t crazy though, because Amanda Waller considers him a meta human because of how well he’s prepared.

[@mandalorianhunter1]

@@dylannichols3577 I mean outside of comics, other adaptations has to many showings of Batman beating Superman and people think that's how it should be

It’s crazy how this is the first Batman movie I have ever seen and it’s still a childhood favorite

[@beelzebub2099]

i cant decide which rendition i like more, more something about absolute Batman just sells it for me even more

[@1stGUARDTANK]

Something I never got in the TDKR is why did Batman's mech suit have a giant hole for his mouth? It looks cooler, I guess, but what if Superman just punched him in the jaw? Even if Superman didn't hit him the face, the shockwave from his punches would affect Bruce's exposed jaw. Such is comicbook logic.

[@rabootfanboysam5068]

I heard somewhere that the hole in the Jaw is in order to get as much oxygen as possible in order to do all the crazy shit he does He isn't actually counting on beating Clark 1 v 1 cuz he knows he can't, he's betting on the fact that the weakening of his powers due to the missile and the general goodness in Clark's heart will keep him alive But Yeah I am just Yapping, It is still Comicbook Logic

[@tybo8377]

Comic book logic? Like the writers ever thought "what if someone on youtube has a problem his mouth being exposed?" That's batman look that's why there's a mouth hole and superman isn't petty enough to aim for Bruce's exposed mouth.. like come on what a dumb thing to complain about

[@arinzechukwuonyekwuluje2218]

Technically the whole in the suit is so he can use his martial arts more effectively and plus it's possible he has a shock absorber on his suit

A Game there you play as that Batman would be great

[@OffensiveGen]

This is why I love the Joker, he knew it was finished before Batman did. He ended things on his own terms. He's always been the character to show Batman that what he's fighting for is futile. This is why I hate the stand alone Joker movie, it's a good watch sure, but it misses the point of the joker. The Joker is meant to be the reason why Batman should stop, the Joker knows it's all dumb, it's all poltitics in Gotham, but Batman should stop.

[@Superlad9494]

Counterpoint. Joker is the reason why Batman shouldn't stop. If Batman stops...there's worse.
