Well, the first issue of **The Dark Knight Strikes Again** came out today. Like many others, I was right there waiting for my copy. Thus far, I’m pleased enough with the artwork; **DK1** didn’t set that high a watermark. The story’s barely unfolding, so I can’t really render judgement. But Batman’s certainly not lost his flair for the dramatic. (No spoilers just yet.) Reactions? ---

Not a comic book reader (much). However, series that end up bound into graphic novel form have a way of catching my eye- a former coworker years ago introduced me to them. I’ve read The Watchmen, and I Own a copy of DK1. (Got a real kick out of watching Batman open up the whoopass on Superman. Awesome.) Haven’t read it, but it sounds like it could have potential. I’ll wait for the graphic novel. ---
