In 1986, DC Comics published Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, written by Frank Miller with art by Miller and Klaus Janson and color by Lynn Varley. In a tale hailed by many as the end of comics’ adolescence and the onset of a more adult mode of illustrated narrative, Bruce Wayne, after a mysterious absence of more that ten years, realizes the time has come to don his cape and cowl once more and battle the darkness.

Story/Spoilers 
It is ten years after an aging Batman has retired and Gotham City has sunk deeper into decadence and lawlessness. Now as his city needs him most, the Dark Knight returns in a blaze of glory. Joined by Carrie Kelly, a teenage female Robin, Batman takes to the streets to end the threat of the mutant gangs that have overrun the city. And after facing off against his two greatest enemies, the Joker and Two-Face for the final time, Batman finds himself in mortal combat with his former ally, Superman, in a battle that only one of them will survive. 

Collectible Entertainment comment:

Nonetheless, Frank Miller’s “Dark Knight / Joker” artwork is still awesome from cover to interior. Recommended for any Frank Miller art enthusiast… as well as Batman / Joker enthusiast. It’s good stuff.
