But seriously, thanks OP

>>93052405
jesus christ it's finally ending

>>93052422
probably the best cover Miller's done for these

>>93052405
Please Frank, don't have Bruce fuck Carrie, please.
If this where you are going with that de-aging shit, then I swear to God...

This series was ruined by Azzarello

I missed last issue, how is Bruce getting de-aged?

>>93053056
has this been building over the last few issues?

>>93053056

Not sure if Azz/Miller are memeing or phoning in boilerplate dialogue.

>>93052807
>heh...

>>93053178
>He's been holding back
You don't say Bruce

Please someone be cool when this is over and post the whole thing

I can't even remember how it started

>>93053056
How wouldn't they All be fine?

>>93052737
>Bigger than the Annihilation Wave

>>93053178
No shit he's always been holding back

>>93053085
The world needs a Superman too.

>>93053226
Clark's been holding back with his heat vision

>>93053240
FUCKING RAY

>>93053265
out fucking killed

>>93053265
classic Frank

so Miller through out his "Superman is some kind of alien super god with no connection to humanity besides he thinks that humans are pathetic creatures that need to be guided and who needs to be humbled by the goddman Batman, a real human being"

>>93053265
fucking amazing

>>93053296

I wonder how we're going to look back at this comic 20 years later.

>>93053400
>but it was totes okay in the 80s

>>93053428
how's that wall coming along?

Nah snowflake, Miller has done this since DKR. The fact your offended makes you quite the bitch

Man, I'm surprised this isn't done more often, its good shit

>>93053379
The first DKR shit on Reagan. Rather than use W Bush, he had the president be ape-Luthor using a hologram.

>>93053409
Is that Carrie or Babs?

>>93053510
Carrie.

>>93053510
it's been Carrie this whole time, and Babs doesn't even appear, why the FUCK would it be Babs

>>93053409
Miller already revealed that Bruce wanted to fuck Carrie at the end of DK2, figured there'd be sex by now.

>>93053532
I saw red hair and police commish and my mind went Batman 666 Barbara

This entire issue and the back story kinda felt like an apology to Superman from Millers part.

>>93053580
Yindel doesn't have red hair

>>93053379
I don't get it, shouldn't Miller like Trump? Unless he was one of those /pol/tards that somehow thought voting for Trump would make legal to shoot niggers and spics on daylight

>>93053668
Miller voted for Hillary.

>>93053390
>having an opinion means you need a special space where you can't hear other people's opinions

>>93053668
Miller is a pretty hardcore leftie, and you fell for the memes

I wonder if the next series will be an apology to Wonder Woman

That's literally just Clark with tits
Are Kryptonian genes that much more dominant than Amazon genes?

>>93053856
Is Arthur sending sharks to people overboard?

>>93052807
What happen here?

>>93053362

Based Frank. Shits on Reagan and Trump!

>>93053968
There better way to handle mosquitos that a one on one fight

>>93053940
Miller's Wondie gets more naked with each series.

>>93054004
perhaps more efficient but doubtfully more fun

>>93053968
Yeah, I'm going to beat up this mosquito.
Way to go, Ray.

>>93053993
How many people know about the Strategic Defense Initiative?

>>93053994
she survived?

>>93053668
Showing your true colors there /co/mblr

>>93054097
god I've missed Frank. I hope he starts writing stuff more regularly after this.

And that's it for this shitfest

>>93054097
So they just leave little Jonathan there alone.

Man this entire issue felt like Miller was saying sorry to Superman.

Has Miller finally stopped being a grumpy old fart? This really felt like a hopeful end.

>>93054097

Thanks /co/mrade. While I didn't care for Strikes Back I definitely enjoyed Master Race.

>>93054124
>shitfest
Fuck off, it was pretty good
As always, OP was a faggot

>>93054097
>Batman: WHERE ARE YOU? THERE IS NO WHERE ON EARTH YOU CAN HIDE!

>Superman: Just in Metropolis taking a stroll.

>>93054168
>>93054167
Master Race was boring as hell.

>>93054026
Every bug annoying you turn it a bloody life or death struggle

>>93054196
I think that's mostly because it took a fucking year and a half to come out

>>93054234
I blame Azzarello's bland writing

Thanks OP. Delivered.

>>93054154
he was never particularly grumpy he just went insane for about a decade. Although he seems to have mellowed out a bit.

>>93054196

Still the best Batman book currently being published by DC.

>>93053339

>>93054263
I just had to run my fucking mouth.

>>93053880
But goddamn, at least phantom hand Hal remains badass as hell. This is probably one of my favorite designs for him. I was seriously not expecting such an awesome Green Lantern from Miller of all people.

>>93054360
>I was seriously not expecting such an awesome Green Lantern from Miller of all people.

Did you not read Dark Knight Strikes Again?

>>93052807
wasnt he godlike in power in the previous series'?

>>93053178
>He's been holding back
No shit, I thought you were supposed to be smart

>>93054405
Yes.

>>93054119
I'm not sure Miller's gonna be around too much longer, desu And I'm sure he has a distaste for writing now. This might have been his send-off to professional writing.

I think Jim Lee has said they're just waiting on him to get to it

>>93053428
Lol that was funny. Retarded, but funny.

>>93054379
Not him, but I try to actively forget Strikes Again because of what Frank did to Dick.

>>93054654
Eh, Dick got the short thrift but I think he was done entertainingly well and more complex in ASBAR

Best timeline.

>>93053856
Is that Mera???

>>93053434
I hope fondly. This book was a pleasant surprise that serves as a wonderful endpoint for Miller's Bat Saga.

1. Year One
2. All Star Batman + Robin
3, Batman/Spawn Crossover
4. The Dark Knight Returns: The Last Crusade
5. The Dark Knight Returns
6. The Dark Knight Strikes Again
7. The Dark Knight: The Master Race

>>93054581
Yes

But this was a slog to get through whereas I couldn't put DKSA down
So

>>93055150
Also add "The Man WHo Laughs" and Long Halloween/Dark Victory as part of the lore of that universe. I'm not 100 percent about the Jeph Loeb being connected but I know for a fact The man who laughs was referenced

>>93055146
no, it's the other ginger woman who dresses in green and hangs out with Aquaman.

>>93055150
Miller wants to make a DKIV, so this is not over yet.

>>93055291
I hope he does.

This was better structured but the writing was boring as fuck.

>>93055239
Dolphin or Tula???
>>93053409
I wonder if Carrie Kelly will be mentioned again in Rebirth??? I mean after all she is friend of Demian right?

>>93055498

Doesn't Dolphin have white/blonde hair?

>>93055234
Dark Victory and Long Halloween can't be part of the canon because of ASBAR.

>>93053649

Uh-huh.

>>93057018
well he's a hardcore lefty with non-lefty views about Islam

>>93053435
one might say "it was acceptable at the time"

>>93057018
>>93057033
Miller is full sjw.

Holy Terror is just meant to be a modern day version of those old WWII comics where Captain America would punch hitler. Miller just wanted to see what a "war or terror" era version of that would be like. He's actually an atheist irl.

>>93057192

It amazes me how few people have read Give me Liberty.

>>93058767

>>93052807
Hal is best boy

>>93057557

i remember he tweeted about supporting hillary/hating trump and people not comprehending

>>93054097

So Superman has to fix the shit upbringing Wonder Woman did. Why is Miller's WW such a terrible person and mother? The whole Master Race problem was her fault.

>>93054255
Please fuck off.

When was this a thing?

>>93060021
since 2015

>>93060021

"I stood on the Sun Firestorm"

>>93054196
Wrong.

>>93055317
Issue #5 was a MASTERPIECE and had one of the hypest moments in any comic EVER. That alone made the whole thing worth it.

>>93053409
Why Bruce is young?

>>93052405
Awesome cover.

>>93063124
Lazarus Pit

>>93052405
>>93052422
Is this an homage to those Jim Lee covers?

>>93052443
Am I the only one who thinks this is the weakest cover of the bunch?

Like, sure, it's well drawn from a technical standpoint, but it's just not really interesting to look at.

>>93052475
This is oddly old school looking. Who drew this?

>>93063240
sounds like Janin
>>93063247

>>93053178

Why would a could of bats bother kryptonians? They can see through them, they can fly through them, it's impossible for them to get bitten. Any collisions could be avoided at super speed or endured like bugs against a windshield.

And if they absolutely had to wipe them out with heat vision, why would they fire the beams with enough intensity to injure and kill their fellow kryptonians? Surely a lower intensity could still fry the bats while bouncing harmlessly off or merely lightly singeing the other kryptonians?

>>93053362
Is he..? Is he taking a shot at Trump and Marvel's Secret Empire at the same time? You madman.

>>93054255
Not that big of an achievement. After Snyder and King a pile of shit is a better Batman comic.
I heard that Priest is writing Bats pretty well in his JLA.

>>93054043
>Kr earrings
I feel stupid for not noticing it before

>>93059504
Lara didn't actually do anything one way or the other, desu.
And Idk if it's WW's fault she turned up like this, when WW herself isn't a (complete) bitch. It's just Lara. Sometimes heroes just have cunty children through no fault of their own.

>>93053457
Who's this guy?

>>93065065
THIS BUT UNIRONICALLY

>>93065794

Wonder Woman is a complete bitch that taught her daughter they're innately superior because of superpowers and thus should be out there leading humanity and being adored. Lara is that way because of her mother.

>>93052513
who made this one?

>>93065815
And yet you don't see Diana trying to take over shit, do you?
Checkmate, atheist.
PS: If she try to take shit over she'd be entitled too. She is superior. Amazons a best.

this whole series was fucking ass. Boring as fuck writing and generic, ugly, bland art. Let's hope Miller follows through on doing DK4 on his own

>>93065838

She probably didn't try take over shit before because of Superman. Remember, he pretty much tamed her ass and turned her into his bitch. Not to mention that before Lex & Brainiac were holding Superman's people hostage, so Superman had to obey them, and she as Superman's bitch had to follow suit even if she didn't like it. Then later she was pregnant and having to take care of a small child.

PS: If she tried to take shit over, she would get her shit kicked by Batman (and probably Superman too). Superpowers don't make anyone superior. Fuck this gods among us bullshit. In this comic Batman and Superman literally BTFO all the kryptonians.

Thanks, OP.

>>93055150
It's funny how some of those are GOAT, others are totally shit, while DKIII sits squarely between the two ends
The saga feels very disjointed as a result

>1. Year One
GOAT
>2. All Star Batman + Robin
edgefest
>3, Batman/Spawn Crossover
literally one of the worst comics ever
>4. The Dark Knight Returns: The Last Crusade
decent
>5. The Dark Knight Returns
GOAT
>6. The Dark Knight Strikes Again
delightfully crazy, brought down by shit art, wish Kubert has drawn this too
>7. The Dark Knight: The Master Race

>>93052764
hopefully it'll get ripped

>>93059429
People are fucking retarded.

>>93066326
>>93055150
Do you think they will release the complete Miller Batman saga in a big-ass omnibus (or two) one day?
I would totally buy it

>>93065080
He's tricking them into blasting each other on accident.

>>93053056
That was a bit hasty.

Am I the only one absolutely loving that Superman still has the trunks in this?

>>93066371
I really fucking hope they do.

>>93053157
This is absolutely beautiful page.

>>93053178
This is fucking awesome.

>>93053194
This is fucking awesome.

>>93053220
That'd be a LOOOOOONG fucking storytime.

But yeah someone should eventually post the whole thing.

>>93053157
>>93053178
>>93053194
What a badass scene.

>>93053157
>>93053178
>>93053194

The idea that Superman's holding back until he isn't anymore to show how really awesome he actually is, is stupid because it means he doesn't take things seriously even in moments where he should.

For example, why didn't Superman obliterated the kryptonians with his super kung-fu right from the start instead of doing it only now when it was meaningless because Atom ended up saving their butts anyway?

It's like a kid going "NUH-UH, I WAS ONLY PRETENDING!" in fight.

>>93053240
OH SHI-

>>93053265
LOL!

>>93053312
This is an absolutely magnificent splash page.

>>93053339
ah geez

>>93053435
DKR's portrayal of Reagan wasn't political. He had him talking like he actually talked irl and he didn't do anything other than tell Superman to kick Batman's ass. The fact that Miller HATED Reagan doesn't change the fact that it was a neutral portrayal.

>>93053668
Miller unironically literally called Trump "literally hitler" in an interview. Miller is so far left it'd make modern Marvel staffers proud. Stop falling for memes.

>>93053431
Well that ended beautifully.

>>93053994
Who the fuck is the little kid?

>>93053994
How the fuck did she survive?

>>93054119
His 21st century output is interesting. It's either "DARK CAMP" and utter garbage, or it's just kind of a lower quality version of his older output (like this, Last Crusade, or Martha Washington Dies). It's basically a coin-toss which of those we're going to get with any given thing.

>>93054196
The ending of issue #5 is one of the hypest things I've ever seen.

It definitely had some strong moments.

>>93064879
yeah

I'm gonna sound like an incredible newbie here but is this related to that dark knight story where batman "beats" superman? You know that one page every batfag uses to claim that batman can kill superman if he wanted to

Also lol at some of these drawings

>>93066674
This is one of multiple stories in that "series".

>>93066674
This is practically the sequel to that

>>93065835
Chip Kidd

Nice final issue to what might have been the strongest miniseries since Rover Red Charlie.

>>93066473
Superman doesn't have an army of hundreds or thousands of yellow-sun charged Kryptonians to fight through. Instead he has 3 or 4 mooks.

>>93066326
>Batman/Spawn Crossover
Blocked that out of my mind entirely

Holy Terror sould be in the list too imo

>delightfully crazy, brought down by shit art, wish Kubert has drawn this too
Disagree, the art fitted the story perfectly in terms of insanity

Thanks, OP.

This feels...remarkably different in ending tone from the rest of Frank Miller's modern overture? For all its pomp and frankness, there is an optimism to it. And a great departure from his tone in "Holy Terror".
