The Dark Knight
I've always loved the darker aspect of Batman, the meaner, grittier Batman. The ass-kicking detective, Miller's Batman. That was until I read Vol.1 of All-Star Batman and Robin last night.This was absolutely terrible, not one likable character in the book other than Alfred the butler. I think, as do other people judging by what I have read, that Miller is writing this book as a joke. Maybe I'm missing the bigger picture here, maybe I'm not smart enough to "get it", but not even Jim Lee can save this for me. After reading it I got nostalgic for the original Dark Knight, so I sketched this. Colors and digital zip-a-tone done in Photoshop.

That's wicked man!! Love it!!!
Nice Bats, I haven't read ASBatman, but have heard similar complaints. I think Mr. Reid really liked it, which is odd, because he usually hates everything unless it's 2000AD.:)
rawls - Thanks man, love to see your take on him!
rory - yeah, but I think it reads alot like Judge Dredd.
