      I rather see an All-Batman Jim Lee pinup book than have to tredge through the sludge that is Frank Miller's writing. Of course, sales on one pin-up book won't equal a 12 issue maxi-series for DC so there ya go...

        does anyone know if this is just a short 12 issue run, or an ongoing series? i really can't see miller doing more than a short 12 issue run on this. maybe if someone else writes this will workout i think?

          I think it's an ongoing Series...maybe it will improve once Miller is gone. But I don't see how a new Writer can undo the damage Miller has done. It's such a shame...this could have been a Classic Year One Type Book...but i think it's too late.

            ^ I think once Miller and Lee finish their 12 issues, DC is putting this title on the shelf...the All-Star line has had problems since the get-go and I think they're going to wash their hands of it and try something else.

                In LITG Rich said that when the current creative teams are done on the books, DC is ending both. I don't know what that means for the WW book that is supposed to be joining the line.

                  I've been buying the series. The biggest problems I have with the book.

                  1: This should be Batman: Rated R. Very raw language. There's too much of
                  "The G.D. Batman" uttered many times in this book.

                  2: He treats Dick Grayson like s**!!! I think all this would make Dick want to kill himself as opposed to wanting to become a crime fighter. On the other hand, if somebody ever makes a new Batman movie and introduces Robin appropriately, this series would be good to borrow from in order to keep Batman dark.

                  3: Batman has more of a Bruce Willis Die Hard type of personna. Not the kind of Batman I'm used to along with the notion that he doesn't believe in shaving, plus he laughs once in a while when fighting crime or driving the Batmobile.

                  4: Not exactly used to the near nudity they show like Vicki Vale in a nightie(Though she did look really good) and in the newest issue. Joker has a topless German lesbian bodyguard with a couple of red swastikas painted you know where.
                  This is definitely an R rated comic book and if DC plans to end it, I hope Dick Grayson becomes Robin before then. After all, this book is called All Star Batman and Robin.

                  Cheers.

                    yeah, i heard that the all-star superman is not doing well, and i figured that after the 12 issues that would be it. i also agree that the miller writting is not what it should be. he's too into hollywood now i guess?

                        Yeah...unless it's something He created....Miller doesn't seem to have any respect for the source Material nowadays.
