I just finished reading this and I thought it was awesome. In my opinion its easily one of the top 5 batman stories ever written. It seems like its really underrated and doesnt get the respect it deserves. It was real good
 
I came out around 1988 and there were comparisons with Frank Miller's TDKR which was still fresh in people's minds, personally I liked it a lot and Bernie Wrightson's art is better than Miller's.
 
It's basically a rip-off of the first two parts of TDKR, and that's the reason I like it.
 
I dont see that.Can you please explain how?

The "talking heads", Batman against a "street army" with a brutal leader, Batman being defeated, Batman finally beats the guy. A lot of psychology and politics.

"The Cult" has always seemed to be a "spiritual sequel" to the TDKR, in my eyes.

ok I guess I can see your point.
 
It's my fav batman graphic novel and yeah I know there's great ones
but the villian was so creppy and batman lost and ran away In the book
I think it's a great book
I don't see anything In The Cult that's from The Dark Knight Returns
except the simlar stuff you talked about,Doctor
