Title: The Dark Knight Strikes Out
Review: There's a Tony Millionaire quote on this book's small inner jacket flap: "This book looks like it was done by a guy with a pen and his girlfriend with an iMac." That's about the best compliment this book deserves. If truth in advertising were the standard they'd mention that the pen was applied sparsely and quite sloppily, and that the girlfriend is probably new to computers and given to horrible, eye-straining experimentation with already-overused Photoshop filters.Come on, all you Frank Miller apologists, get real. There is simply no excuse. Sure, nobody expected this thing to be as innovative and influential as Dark Knight Returns, but when the preproduction sketches at the end of the book have more care put into them than any given page in the finished story, it's time to hold Frank Miller accountable.2 stars only because of the much-deserved scathing commentary on life under the illegitimate Bush regime. Then again, I question whether Miller even intended this.
