At least on the surface. And Batman must return once again to save the world from themselves. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eStill, the world looks fine: a perfectly choreographed, pretty little world where everything that's ugly, or even potentially disturbing, is all nicely wrapped up with neat little ribbons and swept under the carpet. Only Batman knows better. He's watched it fester to near-breaking point, and it's time for the only free man left who can effect any real change to bring it all down around their ears once and for all. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Dark Knight returns once again with a vitality unseen since the first years of his war on crime.

He was also the creative force behind \u003ci\u003eBatman: The Dark Knight\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eReturns\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBatman: Year One\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eBatman: The Dark Knight Strikes Again\u003c\/i\u003e. His many works have not only redefined classic characters, but also, on a few occasions, revitalized the comics industry. His creator-owned \u003ci\u003eSin City\u003c\/i\u003e hit the page in 1991, and then the silver screen in 2005 -- with Miller on board as co-director.
