When his city cries out for help, Batman returns to save the city he had dedicated his life to protecting.

And after facing off against his two greatest enemies, the Joker and Two-Face for the final time, Batman finds himself in mortal combat with his former ally, Superman, in a battle that only one of them will survive.

Collected here are both parts of Miller's DARK KNIGHT saga, including DARK KNIGHT RETURNS #1-4, DARK KNIGHT STRIKES AGAIN #1-3, with additional character sketch and script pages"--
