Dark Knight

I found this article about Frank Miller's Batman. Specifically his two books The Dark Knight Returns and The Dark Knight Strikes Again. I've read this books myself and I highly recommend them to any fan of comics. But these books go beyond the "comic book fan". Batman and the "superheros" of the books are used as a medium to tell a story, and make a point. If those who dismiss comics as juvenile, took the time to look beneath the surface. They may come to realize what many of us already know.
Eventhough the article by Peter Sanderson sometimes reads like a research paper, I loved it. He did a great job of breaking it down. I warn you though, his article is full of spoilers. Hope you like it, cause I sure did.
