the Dark Knight Strikes Again


When I first read TDKSA I was very confused & couldn't make any sense of it. After reading the wikipedia description of events in it, I wonder if it'd be more coherent as an animated feature follow-up to B:TDKR Parts 1 & 2.

I liked how in TDKR only Superman has super-powers. Some aspects, like the Toyman's dolls, pushed the envelope but ultimately, it was a human world.

TDKSA incorporates all sorts of superpowered individuals. The only thing I look forward to in that one is the psychopathic acts of Plastic-man.

Will someone get Greengrass a f*#king steadicam?!

i have been reading this and its crap
it has some cool ideas but overall is crap

why does batman look so much slimmer and younger in this?
pretty stupid
the story itself is OK, reforming the league, freeing them all from the government (luthor controlling the government)
superman looks pretty bad again and it has wayyyyyy too many sexual things like the batchix and the news in the nude
a lot of garbage in this.....not worthy of a sequal

catgirl and the batboys SUCK

Think of it as World War Bat (like world war hulk then it makes sense.)

Asparagus makes your pee smell bad. I wonder what happens if you give asparagus to a cat?

Couldn't even finish Strikes Again. It was awful. They'd be smart to avoid making that into a film.
TDKR worked very well in my opinion though. Here's to hoping Killing Joke gets made next. And/or Long Halloween/Dark Victory. I'd be totally down for that!

I highly doubt Strikes Again will be made into a film. Of course, I could be wrong. While TDKR is viewed as a classic, most scoffed at how bad Strikes Again was when it was originally published. I never read a positive review of the comic when it came out. I seem to recall it was met with a high level of derision--people felt Miller was cynically phoning it in.

I think some ideas from STRIKES AGAIN could be salvaged, but the movie would have to be very different from the comic and with better animation.
