The movie "the dark knight returns pt 1-2" was one of my favorite movies "You dont get it son, this isn't a mud hole, it's an operating table and I'm the surgeon"
I think I genuinely prefer DKR as a stand alone. The others are alright, but there’s a poetry and dynamic in the first one that makes me love it so much
@@aduckluck718 He felt that letting Robin grieve was a bad thing. The Miller Bruce Wayne wanted to treat Robin like a soldier not an adopted son. Robin grew up really messed up and never talked to Bruce again after quitting. Miller’s Robin also turns into a messed up Joker later.
@@tyrone1544not really one of the unique things about these two were their friendship, I'm a Superman fan but loved Batman because he was a great and loyal friend to Superman as Superman is to him
I dunno, imagine the agony that he's still young and Alfred will die eventually. He is the equivalent to Superman's Lois. Take either away and they both go into mania.
More like redefined the limits of that friendship, two doctors taking on an injury/sickness, from two different points of view, one using NEAR lethal doses of strong medicine, while the other uses surgical techniques, to excise the malignancies from a body, one at a time! Both CAN work, but, those in power attempt to hold back both, unless they can use them! If the opposite side starts leaping ahead, it makes the people in power look stupid, fir NOT doing what they could to stop some of it!
The artwork for this makes my head spin.... It's so surreal. Earth 31 is like some kind of fever dream. The characters kind of look familiar, so it hits uncanny valley for me.
I remember the first time I read "The Dark Knight Returns" it was freaking amazing as it's what brought me into reading DC graphic novels. However after inquiring about the second book I could not find a long time ago "The Dark Knight Strikes Again" asking the owner of a local comic book shop he honestly said he could not recommend it. While I never read DK2 and didn't even know about DK3 thank you Benny for presenting all 3.
Best comic ever, I haven't read it in years but I cant wait. The creature snarls and tells me what I need and what I need is to reread this masterpiece.
Funny how it starts off as a simple easy-to-follow story then goes far into something wild. Never read this series and upon seeing this video at some point I said "what the hell is going on? How did we get here?". I can see now why people say frank lost his mind.
WoW😮.. I didn't know that there is sequel comic continue after the *Dark Knight Returns* .. I thought it finished right there.. I guess I'll have to buy it..
Will there be part 3 movie when robin become batgirl and is Harley Quinn back for revenge and superheroes are legal again if there is I would like to see it in a movie though I don't know how this story connected to the batman beyond story
I wish they had cast Michael Ironside as the voice of Bruce Wayne/Batman instead of Peter Weller. Apart from that, I love the Deluxe Edition of the movie that combines parts 1 and 2.
Really liked that little moment where Sups just.... pulls a Batman. Seems like an obvious thing he’s DK when having to deal with such strong folks over more punching.
Thank you for bringing this compilation to us, CS. I think the story was epic, in each of the three books. However, one begins to have action burnout. I think this is the weak point in the trilogy's story. The Kryptonians of Kandor following their leader blindly shows how power (once gained) can corrupt, however, the bigger question is, why, after so many years entrapped would they turn around and do the same thing on Earth as was done to them? Ultimately, I feel the series was a good one, and am thankful for Frank Miller bringing the story to us. The lessons in each book sing loudly in their moral setting, and bring larger questions than there are answers for. Miller has done us a great service, regardless of opinion on the efficacy of his storytelling. Like my own work on A Golconda Story, ultimately, story is something that binds our human experience together.
I've always loved DK series. Its always fun to see my surname in books too. But it is pronounced O'Halloran as in ran away. Love the work m'dude keep it up, you make my rides too and from work that little bit more enjoyable. Happy new year to ya!!!
I really enjoyed this! The dark knight returns is one of my absolute favorites and as most people say I don’t care for strikes back but ok I’ll take it and the master race is pretty good so it’s definitely part of the saga now. So thank you comicstorian and a big thanks to Frank Miller!
not a big fan of the art at first, at least not when paired with these particular characters , but admittedly it finished strong in both the writing and art. overall a solid 8 out of 10! and of course your narration gets a perfect 1 out of 1! keep up the good work, king B and crew!
Round of applause for benney he made this an amazing story I really watched the whole thing respect the comicstorian I'm going out to buy the book right now
I actually liked it. Sure at since points it had way way WAY too much going on it kept me interested. Didn't like what they did to Dick becoming immortal joker it don't feel like something he would really do (.)
seems like master race has very inconsistent power/durability levels for the kryptonians. and shouldn't clark be stronger than them, as they get stronger as they age and with more yellow sun exposure? And he's got waaay more time under the sun than any of them.
I found it interesting and a saga I would like If WB were to make another movie or two adding on to this saga I would find it to be an enjoyable viewing experience.
I'd like to hear about how the Lazarus pit and other resurrection magic in DC somehow "actually kills" some other hero/villain that never sold to revive whoever is selling better 😂
Why did the art get WORSE!?!? Dark knight returns is one of my favorite stories but has sub par art. But my god the sequels look ATROCIOUS just from a visual stand point
Benny, since u doing some old throwbacks...it's time we talked bout covering Kingdom Come again. I will literally s**t ma self if I finally see my fav CZcamsr do that series justice
_You know it kinda looks like Batman agrees with a lot of the comments_ Seems like the confined city of krypton had some corruption. What if a child lost their parents in a dark alleyway, and later grew up to try and purge that corruption in that city. Kinda want to write that for the obvious conclusion
OH NO I FORGOT THE THUMBNAIL!!! Well, 3 hours late is better than never right?
It’s ok. I’m still in here
Oh noes!
I stubbed my toe
This guy xD
Wear a cup under your spandex costume.
The movie "the dark knight returns pt 1-2" was one of my favorite movies
"You dont get it son, this isn't a mud hole, it's an operating table and I'm the surgeon"
Same here
I love that part
"Ok son...show me..."
I wish they didn't redo him killing the goon but other than that it was great
S I think they didn’t have him kill him becasue they wanted his breaking point to be with Joker
I think I genuinely prefer DKR as a stand alone. The others are alright, but there’s a poetry and dynamic in the first one that makes me love it so much
Don't we all?
Frank’s Batman is interesting tho. Sometimes stupid but the journey is crazy. He treated Robin so poorly.
@@eldritchpumpkinghost2968 bro why did Bruce drive Robin crazy
@@aduckluck718 He felt that letting Robin grieve was a bad thing. The Miller Bruce Wayne wanted to treat Robin like a soldier not an adopted son. Robin grew up really messed up and never talked to Bruce again after quitting. Miller’s Robin also turns into a messed up Joker later.
@@eldritchpumpkinghost2968 i think thats the story from the dcau right
Bruce didn’t shave. His moustache disappeared similar to Batman disappearing from Commissioner Gordon
It threw down a miniature smoke bomb
Benny you really got me into comic books, wish I could help the channel more
Same here
Same here, started with the killing joke, onto the batman who laughs. Now im on DKR
@StaleBread cause it’s what I like 😂
Patreon?
I was always into them but Benny got me goin out and buying them at launch 😂
Honestly I like how Superman and Batman began working together again towards the end there. Superman risking it all to save Bruce's life.
Dorkie comment.
@@tyrone1544not really one of the unique things about these two were their friendship, I'm a Superman fan but loved Batman because he was a great and loyal friend to Superman as Superman is to him
Wow. You can actually pinpoint the exact moment this universe went from masterpiece to sh**.
it's also the moment where Frank Miller went from crazy to completely insane
You.
where? what happened?
@@thedude3065 i don't get it? what's going on?
@@Gadget-Walkmen basically Frank Miller used to be a good comic book writer but now his comics are kind of weird and bad
I love when he gets young again. I wish it would continue with a young Batman
I dunno, imagine the agony that he's still young and Alfred will die eventually.
He is the equivalent to Superman's Lois. Take either away and they both go into mania.
@@jayjay86443 yeah you're right. I just like the story, it's my favorite story set in the future, except Kingdom Come I do like more
@@jayjay86443 Alfred is already dead tho.
@@jayjay86443 alfred is already dead
I liked that the last installment fixed Clark and Bruce's friendship
Superman can fuck off
Smith LMAOOO

What one hell of a way to bring 2019 to a close Benny
Dark Knight Returns is a Masterpiece.
Dark Knight Strikes again is awful.
Master Race is great.
Yeah, the second one needed some work, but the Flash made me like it a bit, but it is the worst one
I'm so glad you have vaush in your profile pic
I like all of them just saying.
Nah
Why do they have to make Dick Grayson a villain?
when i opened the notification it says "comicstorian uploaded: comicstorian"
LMFAO SAME I THOUGHT HE MADE A COMIC AND WAS GOING TO SHOWCASE IT
have an awesome day same
Love how Clark's mech-suit still has his face on it.
It was a good story
a little sad what they did to Dick Grayson
The flash parts were pretty awesome would like to see more for sure
I loved it, it was a shakey execution but a very solid idea I'd love to see how the world develops after this.
I guess I see now why the movies only covered the first part of this story...
The last part isn't bad, but it needs lots of cuts
@@dennisthemenace8825if it needs lots of cuts….Its bad.
Gotham: falls into complete mayhem
Bruce trying to relax: Sonuva
Harvey: hard relapse
Bruce suiting up: SONUVA-
I love how Superman and Diana just make earthquakes when they *ahem*. Wonderful writing Frank truly wonderful

Batman calling the young heroes “youngsters” like a real OG

But the part where he lost his mind is so good!
TDKR really is one of the best graphic novels of all time. Pretty cool to see it narrated so well.
that was an amazing story,thank you guys so much for the hard work that goes into these awesome videos
WoW😮..
I didn't know that there is sequel comic continue after the
*Dark Knight Returns* .. I thought it finished right there..
I guess I'll have to buy it..
The animated movie of this is great too
Will there be part 3 movie when robin become batgirl and is Harley Quinn back for revenge and superheroes are legal again if there is I would like to see it in a movie though I don't know how this story connected to the batman beyond story
Ummm... It's not meant to connect to Batman Beyond. I doubt there will be part 3.
I wish they had cast Michael Ironside as the voice of Bruce Wayne/Batman instead of Peter Weller. Apart from that, I love the Deluxe Edition of the movie that combines parts 1 and 2.
I believe this is one of the darkest stories of DC, what the hell happened to all of this characters
Panagiotis Karagiannis I feel like it’s the boys before the boys was the boys

Me at 2AM: welp it’s time to sl- (see’s this) SLEEP IS FOR THE WEAK
It's 6 am and it just finished
It took me so long to realize That the Sons Of Batman, name spelled out SOB's! This was when this storyline was just coming out!
I actually didn't know anything came after dark knight returns this is insane I loved it
I hate how batman literally murders his own son even though he could have gotten him help
Can't blame you for the quick " she hugs him" lol ..
I loved strikes back! it brought the entire DCu in with Bruce playing a pivotal leadership role.
I havent been this early since Joker was sane
DKR2 has the most horrendous "art" i've ever seen.
Wow Alfred treats robin/Jason like if he didn’t even realize how he died
I've always loved DK series. Its always fun to see my surname in books too. But it is pronounced O'Halloran as in ran away. Love the work m'dude keep it up, you make my rides too and from work that little bit more enjoyable. Happy new year to ya!!!
I’ve actually never read the sequel books to The Dark Knight Returns. Thx! Full Stories are by far my favorite videos.
I really enjoyed this! The dark knight returns is one of my absolute favorites and as most people say I don’t care for strikes back but ok I’ll take it and the master race is pretty good so it’s definitely part of the saga now. So thank you comicstorian and a big thanks to Frank Miller!
Why the hell do you read it like a 10 year old high on sherbert?
All together the best story that I have heard. It’s a new start and all the old demons are taken care of. I really liked it. One of my favorites.
I’m currently halfway through the video and this guy’s Joker laugh is really good
not a big fan of the art at first, at least not when paired with these particular characters , but admittedly it finished strong in both the writing and art. overall a solid 8 out of 10! and of course your narration gets a perfect 1 out of 1! keep up the good work, king B and crew!
I see what your saying. But the art just works for this story. 🎉
Best Batman Story ever written
I think the "Master Race" had so much promise as an idea but in execution seems very rushed and at times not even cared about 😎
Round of applause for benney he made this an amazing story I really watched the whole thing respect the comicstorian I'm going out to buy the book right now
You should do the “Knight Fall” story line.
Can you do a Dark Knight returns: The golden child video? I’m trying to start Carrie Kellys story now
I just love Benny's joker laugh ❤️👌
Damn this is AWESOME! i can't thank you enough for bringing this story up.. it is FREAKING AWESOME!
It is one of my all time favorites. Up there with Kingdom Come.
I actually liked it. Sure at since points it had way way WAY too much going on it kept me interested. Didn't like what they did to Dick becoming immortal joker it don't feel like something he would really do (.)
😭😭😭 SHAAAZAAAMMMM!!! THAT WAS EPIC AS HELL
Excellent! Hoping for Born Again and Kingdom Come!!
There are alot of problems with this series but i love how off the wall mental it gets
It love to see you do JLA New World Order. The Grant Morrison story.
Still a nice batman overview.
This was brilliant, thank you
Genuinely had no idea this had so many parts
yeah can honestly agree that the second installment felt like the whole universe was just on copious amounts of crack the whole time
I'm glad that they only animated part 1 and 2 because I think there really good stories
Daaaaaaaaaaaaaamn. I love this story
"The ones from Canada are now choosing to concure it" 1:00:00 subtitles lol
After the dark Knight returns part, I see why the art is being dissed.
Number#1 Comic channel
Loved it Benny. Thanks
I do actually like the story. What I'm unhappy about is how Bruce and Dick's relationship is completely trashed on.
16:26 your joker laugh is amazing
I really hope at some point they might continue this story.
What a great comic and what a great narrator to read it
You should also do the Dark Knight Returns: the last crusade!
seems like master race has very inconsistent power/durability levels for the kryptonians. and shouldn't clark be stronger than them, as they get stronger as they age and with more yellow sun exposure? And he's got waaay more time under the sun than any of them.
This was Awesome!
Awesomeness.This is how it should go.Makes perfect sense beginning 2 end💯💯💯👍👍👍
You kind of forget the last crusade because I heard it’s a prequel to the first book or has it been debunked?
Enjoyed it. Any Comic book @ the moment is better then no comic book. This pandemic is getting on my last nerve.
I found it interesting and a saga I would like
If WB were to make another movie or two adding on to this saga I would find it to be an enjoyable viewing experience.
Batman. Forever!
I hope all DK2 and DK3 get animated as well, but it probably will never happen
Only 1 and 2 were made
I'd like to hear about how the Lazarus pit and other resurrection magic in DC somehow "actually kills" some other hero/villain that never sold to revive whoever is selling better 😂
I don't really ever comment, but holy shit they need to keep this story going.
My mind melted
Dark Knight returns ! Heck yeah
That joker laugh at 16:28
Amazing.this is why i am a fan
Why did the art get WORSE!?!? Dark knight returns is one of my favorite stories but has sub par art. But my god the sequels look ATROCIOUS just from a visual stand point
Different artist
This is an awesome story. DC should continue the animated movie.
Benny, since u doing some old throwbacks...it's time we talked bout covering Kingdom Come again. I will literally s**t ma self if I finally see my fav CZcamsr do that series justice
Hey do u think u can do a full story of the justice league new 52 leading into darksied war?
This guys content needs to be on the DC universe App this shit is amazing
Don't nitpick. This was an AMAZING story!!!
when i saw superman in the robotic suit i started dying
All action this was dope
_You know it kinda looks like Batman agrees with a lot of the comments_
Seems like the confined city of krypton had some corruption. What if a child lost their parents in a dark alleyway, and later grew up to try and purge that corruption in that city. Kinda want to write that for the obvious conclusion
A hole new experience to this comic amazing job
Muds actually really good for cuts
Much better than reading the damn things. Great job!
I've never been realized that Bruce wayne becomes young again when the exact moment that Batman's finest days.
OH NO NO NO top right HAHA 35:59
