The Complete Frank Miller Batman is an absolute must-have for Batman fans, Frank Miller fans, and pretty much anyone who loves comics. This deluxe, leather-bound, silver leaf hardcover collects Frank Millers seminal works Batman: Year One and Batman: the Dark Knight Returns, with a Christmas-themed short story serving as an interlude between the two epics.
These two Batman epics are considered among the best, if not the absolute best, Batman stories ever. Year One shows a young Bruce ... Read More

The stories inside deserve this level of presentation. "The Dark Knight Returns," ... Read More

Frank Miller revolutionized comics in America, and quite possibly the world. With sophisticated plots and asorbing artwork, the reader becomes intangled with the charaters as much as he or she would with any play, movie, or novel.

"Batman: Year One" is the first story in the collection (actually ... Read More
