The legend of Lone Wolf and Cub continues to grow in this latest chapter of Koike and Kojima's epic samurai masterpiece chronicling the wanderings of Japan's deadliest assassin, Itto Ogami, and his infant son, Daigoro. In this volume, Ogami takes on the most dangerous killer of the countryside, foils the plans of a deceptive gambling troupe, tricks an evil lord into exposing his weak underbelly, and pits himself against the Shogun's dangerous and deadly Kurokawa ninja! Drawing extensively from Sun Tzu's The Art of War, and featuring the saddest puppy-dog story ever published, this must-have volume is packed with action and emotion.

Writer/artist Frank Miller completely reinvents the legend of Batman in this saga of a near-future Gotham City gone to rot, 10 years after the Dark Knight’s retirement. Forced to take action, the Dark Knight returns in a blaze of fury, taking on a whole new generation of criminals and matching their level of violence. He is soon joined by a new Robin—a girl named Carrie Kelley, who proves to be just as invaluable as her predecessors. Can Batman and Robin deal with the threat posed by their deadliest enemies, after years of incarceration have turned them into perfect psychopaths? And more important, can anyone survive the coming fallout from an undeclared war between the superpowers—or the clash of what were once the world’s greatest heroes? Hailed as a comics masterpiece, The Dark Knight Returns is Frank Miller’s (300 and Sin City) reinvention of Gotham’s legendary protector. It remains one of the most influential stories ever told in comics, with its echoes felt in all media forms of DC’s storytelling. Collects issues #1-4.

La graphic novel DIE RÜCKKEHR DES DUNKLEN RITTERS a révolutionné le médium de la bande dessinée, tandis que sa suite DER DUNKLE RITTER SCHLÄGT ZURÜCK a suscité des discussions passionnées. Ces deux œuvres maîtresses de Frank Miller explorent des thèmes de justice, de moralité et de la lutte contre le mal, tout en plongeant dans la psyché complexe de ses personnages. L'univers sombre et captivant qu'il crée interroge les notions de héros et d'antihéros, tout en offrant une réflexion sur la société contemporaine. Les illustrations saisissantes de Lynn Varley et Klaus Janson accompagnent le récit, renforçant l'impact émotionnel et visuel de cette saga incontournable.
