Batman: The Dark Knight Returns is a groundbreaking graphic novel by Frank Miller that arrived back in 1986. It easily helped to redefined the Caped Crusader and taking comic books as a more serious art form. Set in a dystopian Gotham City, the tale follows a 55-year-old Bruce Wayne who comes out of retirement to end crime in the city once again. This is a trial that Batman must push himself to physical and mental limits to overcome and bring his sparks of hope and fear back to Gotham.

Hot Toys is now bringing the legendary DC Comics figure story to life with a brand new 1/6 scale figure. The Dark Knight will feature an impressive array of features from a newly sculpt body to capture his more bulky form, to swappable lower faces, and even a cape with a bendable wire. For accessories, he can get by just fine with some swappable hands, a few  batarangs, a grappling batarang, and a rifle. Bring justice to Gotham once again for $255 and the Hot Toys Batman: The Dark Knight Returns is up for pre-order now on Sideshow Collectibles with a March 2025 release.
