On second thought, I have to give them props. They managed to take a stupid name (Batman v Superman) and make it even stupider. Bravo.

I have a question to all you super comic book geeks out there. Whenever "those people" compare which one is the best Batman, people usually say that Frank Miller's is the best. Is there a reason why this is the case or just personal preference? All I see is an old, bloated, Batman with IMHO weird art. Is this version somewhat more "badass" or what? Then again I thought Batman Beyond was cool as shit so what do I know. (shrug)

Miller is a great Batman type of guy. Not only did he write a really good story, but he also did the artwork as well. He definitely had a vision for the various stories, and it shows. You should read The Dark Knight Returns. It really is classic. Very dark and heavy writing.

Loeb/Jim Lee's Batman from Hush is my favorite version of Batman, with 2nd place going to the God Damn Batman from Miller/Jim Lee All Star Batman and Robin.

Some people Love Neal Adam's Batman tho.

I Like the Dark Knight, but that is an old washed up Batman imo.
It's like comparing Fistful of Dollars Clint EastWood to Unforgiven Clint.

Hush was such an awesome series. The artwork was definitely second to none. Jim Lee is just that great. I still have all of those issues in a box in my basement.

Ive read that book like 50 times, Its one of my favorite comics ever.

Jeph Loeb as bad as his writing has been since his son died, has some absolutely brilliant comics out there.

Miller is generally credited as bringing Batman back to his roots.The Dark Knight Returnsfeatures a much darker and grittier Batman, with a more adult-oriented story. It pushes Batman into anti-hero territory and helped kick off that archetype. Basically, he shifted the tone of Batman to what we have today.
