Is that Ronald Reagan in a Superman costume crapping his pants? Knowing Frank Miller, yes. Now he's trying to milk one of the few decent ideas he had all these years later, as if the piece of shit sequel he put out years ago wasn't enough to tell him the teet was dry. The guy hasn't had a decent idea in like 25 years and when he hasn't been writing terrible and obnoxious comics, he's spent those years going out of his way to shit on his own fans at every turn for no good reason. I'll give him credit that The Spirit was one of the most entertainingly bad movies I've ever seen. He may have nearly bankrupted a studio with that turd but he had an Oscar winner with me.

One theory I've heard about Frank Miller is that 9/11 broke his brain.
He lived in apartment near the World Trade Centers and was working on the Dark Knght Strikes Again when the towers came down.
He was breathing in smoke from the towers and working on the comic at the same time. He completely changed the direction of the story he wanted to tell as a result.

I had totally gotten out of comics when DKII hit. Read it finally in 2008. Heard all the fanboys gripiing about it. Read and realized why. Miller said in interviews for years he didn't want to do a sequel to DKR. Seems like he got tired of the decades of the fanboys begging and wrote the biggest and so far best "FU Fanboys" comic I have ever read.
I love how it wasn't until the last 15 years or so people started noticing stuff that has always been in Miller's work. Like how it seems like he really doesn't care for women. And all the other stuff people now claim "Well he lost his mind so inserted this stuff into his work." It has always been there.

But by the same toke it has become much more apparent as the years went on.

What came out so far was much much better than the over praised All Star Superman crap.

I'll be honest I'm actually looking forward to this but only to see how much of a massive trainwreck this piece of shit will most likely be
And judging from that superman cover where he looks like he just shat himself its safe to assume that I'm not going to be disappointed.
