For the first Batman movie, it felt like it was Batman and I loved how Jack Nicholson portrayed the Joker. And I'm a sucker for the Prince soundtrack
Again,just because he was dolled up in black rubber and in a gothic setting does not make it Batman.there are numerous problems with how Batman/Bruce wayne are depicted in that movie.Jack Nicholson was not the Joker.He was playing Jack Nicholson with with white make up.As for Prince- he had no business being anywhere near Batman's world.
I know, it just feels wierd without the "The"
No it doesn't.You're a product of you're time Hippie.
I don't think it would be redundant. I would like to see another Frank Miller Batman story that doesn't have Batman acting like a psychopath and in a serious tone.
It's already been done.Why try to do a duplicate?
Now that I think about it, Year Two by Miller would be a bad idea. With Year One, The Man Who Laughs, Batman and the Monster Men, Batman and the Mad Monk, The Long Halloween, Dark Victory, Robin: Year One, and Batgirl: Year One, the adventures of Batman's early days can get cluttered up quickly.
See?Good point.There are so many versions of Year Two out there as it is.Which illustrates the message of my signature:there comes a time when a reader has to pick and choose what works for them as opposed to trying to keep track of a continuity.
I don't see Year One as a one note story.
That's beacuse it's not.Without the humour, it would have been,though.
I just don't find any humor in it. Enlighten me, where's the humor?
It's the little things:Loeb's office.batman hiding behind Dent's desk untill Gordon leaves.Alfred's sarcasm towards Bruce. Holly.The humor is subtle,but it's there.
Dude, no comic has even been as big as the way you describe the Dark Knight Returns.
If you had been around in '86 you'd know differently.Because in fact it really was that big, in terms of comics transcending it's own medium.
