Frank Miller is a legend of live comics. However, for Batman's fans, most of Miller's legacy will always be the one who writes and begs "The Dark Knight returns" in 1986, then next year, writing "Batman: one year" (drawn by David Mazuceli). Both are usually ranked as the two best and most influential comics in Batman ever. However, they are almost polar opposites.

"Batman: One year" is a stripped -down story of crime, complemented by the real art of crude oil. Is appropriate for Bruce Wayne First year Being Batman and so is set in Gotham City before becoming a home for criminals. In "One Year", Batman only fights with SWAT gangsters and teams.

While "one year" is the beginning of Batman, "the dark knight is coming back" is the end. Miller, who was approaching 30 and felt anxious when he was older than Batman, wrote a story about 50-year-old Bruce Wayne who retired when Gotham needs once again. "Dark Knight" is a maximalist comic book; Miller uses 16 panel layouts when not drawing huge spray pages. He also dares to do things any other comic book in Batman could not, as the Soker may die in the last fight with Batman ... or Batman Beating Superman.

Indeed, "the dark knight is back" used by Superman as an antagonist. Unlike other well -known heroes, the idle Superman is still active. Now, he is the official agent of the US president (cartooned Ronald Reagan), opposing the illegal Batman. The top of the fourth and last number is Superman to be sent to Gotham to make Batman stand. Instead, the dark knight fights and beats the man by steel with the help of his armor and Some useful cryptonite.

In Newoujork Comic Book to 2016, Miller said, "Superman is the best hitting bag you can ever find." After all, who else can do more damage and get back again than the steel man? In the "dark knight", before his fight with Batman, Superman even occupies a nuclear power plant and survives.

"I have always wanted to see Batman just as beating (Superman) up," Miller continued. "I think both of them (Miller and Brian Azarello, his co-writer" Dark Knight III ") have a shoulder chip for Big Boy's scout."

Miller also said (in conversation with director "Batman Against Superman: Dawn of Justice" Zack Snyder) He is attracted to Batman's "self-made" nature. "Extraordinary feats come easily on Superman. He can fly, and then the rest (...) I enjoy the effort," he said. Some of these comments and his writing to Superman have led to claims that Miller hates Superman or, at least, deliberately descends in favor of Batman. Is that really true?
