The Dark Knight Returns is a groundbreaking DC Comics graphic novel by Frank Miller that helped redefine Batman in 1986. Set in a dystopian future, this story tells the story of an older, retired version of Bruce Wayne who has hung up his cape for quite some time. However, crime does not stop and is back and worse than ever in Gotham City and it is time to clean up the streets once again. This version of Batman is darker, grittier, and does not take any prisoners. During his journey back, he battles Mutants, the return of the Joker, and even a deadly showdown with an old ally, Superman. McFarlane Toys is now bringing The Dark Knight Returns version of Batman to their growing DC Comics Collector's Editon line.
We have seen a DC Multiverse Dark Knight Returns wave before with the Build-A-Horse wave with Carrie, Superman, Joker, and the Dark Knight. Now, the Dark Knight is back in his blue batsuit and is getting a new battle-damaged design. This figure nicely captures the Frank Miller artwork that this comic is known for. Sadly, he does not get a fabric cape, but he does come with three pairs of hands, two swappable heads, and a light post. Priced at $29.99, Batman is set to arrive in September 2024, and pre-orders are online at most retailers, including McFarlane Toys Store.
