Batman will perhaps never escape the shadow of Frank Miller. His take on the character has left such an
indelible mark that almost every iteration since has been a variation of what
he established. Ironically, as
influential as both Batman: Year One and
Batman: The Dark Knight Returns have
been, the latter has never received a proper adaptation in either live-action
or animated form. Alas, The DC Animated
Universe provides a wonderful platform to explore non-canonical takes on
beloved characters. This fall, the highly
popular series will welcome Frank Miller’s dystopian (and some would say
definitive) take on the caped crusader into the fold. The Hollywood Reporter has recently published photographic evidence of this
endeavor.
