Another of my favorite comics the Dark Knight Returns tells the story of a future Gotham city where Bruce Wayne has retired as batman due to his age and the death of his sidekick Robin. Appaling crime rates due mainly to the infamous Mutant gang and the return of Harvey Dent convince Wayne to don his old alter ego once again. While being a somewhat an unofficial addition to the Batman contunuity it gives a good view of a batman who was pushing 60, while having experience he lacks the physical attributes he had when in his prime and must prove to Gotham and himself that he has what it takes to protect his city once again.
As well as having a very compelling well written story This has some of my favourite artwork, whilst it is very 'comic bookie' type art work it is different from most art and had very nice texture to it.
