Batman: The Dark Knight Returns

Robin's a girl, though, and that's totally cool.

I want Robin to be a girl if Robin is ever re-introduced in the movies again.

Unfortunately (?) I make comics my outlet for being a feminist, and Miller . . . well he's Frank Miller. These comics are no exception.

If you read DKR looking for a total patriarchal collapse, you were reading it for the wrong reasons. The story is about Batman.

Er, by feminism I don't mean women > men. I mean equalism, I suppose. And since I read them one after another, I don't remember which is in Strikes Again and which is in Returns, but Miller took quite a few digs at feminists, and then had Wonder Woman be all like "ZOMG SUPERMAN, I LOVE IT WHEN YOU RAPE ME!" neither of which pleased me much at all.

That being said, yeah, I love Carrie Kelly, and the whole thing wasn't bad.

Don't get me wrong; it's worth the read. I just felt the need to point out that particular flaw.
