The Dark Knight Returns being animated

This is great news. An excellent choice for the next adaption.

that's awesome.

I still can't wait to see year one

wow sounds GREAAAAT !!
looking forward to this.

Well that's interesting. They said it would be very faithful so I wonder if it'll be R with how violent it is. I like Conroy but when they had Micheal Ironside do his voice for the 80's segment in the Legends of the Datk Knight episode I thought it fit really well. I'd almost prefer they use him.

Ironside rocks, but if they went with him every time he spoke I'd feel like Sam Fisher was under the cowl instead of Bruce Wayne. :tcool:

That's awesome. Dark Knight Returns is on of my favorite graphic novels. Need to reread it though it's been like 3 years

And I totally agree about Conroy. To me, he's Batman. But not this version of Batman.

sign me up! and i wanna see Year One as well

Timm saying it'd be faithful to the book is great. Can't wait to see how this develops.

It's logical that fans would immediately clamor for Conroy because of the cartoons and video games, especially since he did future Bruce in the Beyond show. Timm's been good to the Batman character, so I'm sure we won't be disappointed.

If Hamill is chosen to reprise the role of Joker, I hope he loses some of the wackiness and adds some nice raspy darkness to add to the atmosphere of the story.

I'unno about Ron Perlman for Batman, he did it for the Justice League Heroes video game and it just didn't sound right. I like him for most stuff, but not Batman.

Should be interesting. I thought DKR was a bit overrated but it's a neat take on Batman. Not the "definitive" take a lot of people like to say it is, but it was a big step forwarad for the character in the 80s. I love all the DC animated stuff so I'll definitely be getting this.
