Episode 208: Return of The Dark Knight Returns Part 2

Content warning (death by suicide)

Our reexamination of Frank Miller’s Batman: The Dark Knight Returns continues! How good IS this story, really? Will things go differently than they did in our fourth episode way back in 2016, allowing this universally acclaimed 1986 miniseries to avoid nuclear winter and score a ticket to that David Endocrine Show studio audience known as … The Comics Canon?

In This Episode:

  • The only Bartleby the Scrivener reference you’ll hear in a comics podcast this week!
  • What’s the deal with the flying bomber Garbage Pail Kids?
  • The 99% Invisible Power Broker Book Club
  • Robert Caro’s The Path to Power
  • Douglas Wolk’s Reading Comics: How Graphic Novels Work and What They Mean
  • Some Fantastic Four movie talk

Join us in two weeks as we discuss Flung Out of Space: Inspired by the Indecent Adventures of Patricia Highsmith, by Grace Ellis and Hannah Templer!
