Frank Miller's seminal graphic novel The Dark Knight Returns is adapted for the small screen with a sprawling Warner Premiere animated film series that finds an old and weary Bruce Wayne (voiced by Robocop himself, Peter Weller) donning the cape and cowl once again after a long retirement. Covering the final two issues of the series, Part 2 pits the outlawed crusader against his nemesis, The Joker (voiced by LOST's Michael Emerson), as well as a militarized Superman, who carries out justice in the name of the United States of America. Ariel Winter (Modern Family) plays a female version of Robin, with Dark Shadows' David Selby rounding out the voice cast. Jay Oliva (Green Lantern: Emerald Knights directs from a script by Bob Goodman. ~ Jeremy Wheeler, Rovi.

I just hope they continue the story with an animated The Dark Knight Strikes Again, would be kool to see all the cameos by the other DC heroes from that graphic novel

awesome can't wait for second part

Oh man that is so badass. Im glad they split it in two because it really does look like a completely different story, but works with the last part. never read the graphic novel, but I want to now!

Saw The Dark Knight Returns Part 1 on DVD quality bootleg and I can't wait to see this one. I'm really holding out hoping DC Animation will release a version with the two films edited together into a 150minute film. THEN, I'll buy it on Blu-Ray. Until then, I'm holding out.

Fantastic book. Can't wait to see this.

@VicSage yeah, me too. I'm waiting for them to at least put the two films in the same box.

Yes! Right around the corner!

Dc are just on a different level with their animation to marvels which I find rather boring when it shouldn't be apart from wolverine vs hulk

I LOVED THE FIRST ONE.

Pumped for this.

Awesome stuff. I would really like to see some more classics adapted after this!

First one was great, definitely getting Part 2.

Great adaption cant wait for second part. I'm actually hoping they go a little further and do a part 3

When I read The Dark Knight Returns, I thought it was very good. Not flat-out amazing like the hype said, but quite good.

The Part 1 animated film made me LOVE this story. So I'm very excited to see Part 2.

I never bothered with Miller's second take on it. I heard it was crap.

Maybe they'll do Hush next? Frankly I'd like a No Man's Land film too.

@sKeemAn

If they do a part 3, Im hoping its another two part adaptation of The Dark Knight Strikes Again...continuing the story of elderly Batman
