I feel like this book gets a lot of undue attention. It's not on the same level as Watchmen. Miller is not as intelligent as Moore. This is more of an "old man yelling at the government and also venting about how much he fucking hates X-Men" thing.

then who's that guy right there

>Talks like a father figure to Robin
>Dislikes like guns
>Has a no kill rule
>Very serious
>Doesn't break or give up
Sounds like Batman to me.

DKR is one of most misunderstood books in comics and sad cuz of how simple it is, it isn't this realistic and grounded dark edgy Batman story like lot of people think it is, while yes it's got dark world gritty look it's more a big epic about the return of a classic hero and almost like more serious modern version of the Sliver Age Batman (which is a shame West didn't voice him in the animated film youtube.com/watch?v=RZ211GBe6e0), It's classic classic Batman thrown into a darker 80's world and turning that world into bright comic book madness and DKR2 is shit but kinda carries that on ward also remember DKR Batman isn't same guy as other Miller's Batmen who written almost as different characters.

this is every frank miller comic

Whatever delusion you have that Batman is, you're wrong.
Miller Batman is composite 40s-70s Batman, not the gimpy Starlin-derived faggot you probably adore.
>Muh Dark and Gritty
80s Batman was dark and gritty, read any comic from the area for that pseudo nihilistic bullshit. Miller Batman actually brought back some of the fun 40s material all while telling a story in the Gothic world of O'Neill's invention.
Also a true super-scientist/world's greatest detective. Miller Batman is the ideal

Any story where Batman is in an actual inspiration to people just makes these millennials rub their microclits in leftist angst.

It's like everyone has to take a crack at the "jaded hero years in the dystopian future" schtick.

I thought O'Neil and Starlin Batman was the same?

Not true. Leftists praise the latest Batman movie.

>takes kids who used to dress up as nazis and makes them a part of his street police where they will spend a lifetime beating up people on the streets instead of using his funds to provide proper education for them and make them valuable members of society
People will unironically defend this.

It's still the best one.
Honestly, it's pretty underrated. I see a lot more hate toward this than toward much shittier comics.
I'd put it right under Watchmen as 2nd best superhero comic.

that's because the last 30 minutes take a cartoony turn of events to make the riddler an undisputed bad guy and teach batman that beating niggers to death isn't the only way to make a difference

Yeah it's a comic book.

wow bro you're so smart for realizing that batman isn't a role model for to handle the rehabilitation of criminals and social welfare.
(i am being sarcastic, you are a stupid bastard.)

O'Neill Batman = Gothic Detective, Starlin Batman = the Beginning of the post modern era. Death in the Family, Batman leaving KGBeast to die, Batman as a cultist, etc.
Yes, because Batman is portrayed as a violent white male who has to be pacified by woke women in it.
If you're watching a Batman movie and Batman
1) Beats up prisoners
2) Just savagely attacks random thugs with no bigger plan
it's not really a Batman movie. It's a deconstruction.

Ellen Yendel says "nobody can fly" in world where Superman exists.

I don't get how Batman Year One, DKR and DK2 are supposed to be in the same continuity.

>instead of using his funds to provide proper education for them and make them valuable members of society
What do you think happens to troubled kids exactly?
Kids like the mutants get funneled through the Juvie system, they get expelled from any school they go to. Batman answers their problem by giving them the Robin experience. He teaches them how to fight and all the life lessons that come with that.
The final page of DKR is the promise that Bruce Wayne is going to military drill these kids into men and women of substance.
Would you rather they keep on living out a far right anarcho day-dream? The fascist thing to do would leave them where they are.

You clearly haven't read the book if you don't know why Commissioner Yindel believes that.
