This article features a nice argument in favor of making "The Dark Knight Returns" the sequel to "TDK." The only real case against using the sequel is the presence of Superman (who as we all know is too unrealistic to feature in Nolan's universe). Other than that, "TDKR" is possibly the greatest Batman story ever told, and it seems a shame that one particular plot point/scene would hinder the whole thing from being adapted to the big screen.
So my question is this: is there ANY way to work around Superman's role in the story and feature some sort of "alternate ending" that retains the realism of Nolan's Bat-verse but which is equally as compelling? The Batman-Superman showdown is without a doubt one of the best scenes in "TDKR" but simply could not exist in the next film.
Any other ideas?
