    The Dark Knight Returns is purly epic. The fight between Batman and Superman was fantastic.It proves my forum topic on who would make a better president Superman or Batman it clearly shows Superman as a government tool. How good of a president can that be? It's a good well thought out story and should be read by any fan of the caped crusader.It is thrilling; I was excited to see what was going to happen next.
