Critical Reception
The Dark Knight Strikes Again has gained mixed to negative reception. Grovel.org.uk gave the miniseries two stars out of five, and states that it "reads as a thunderous artillery barrage, all smoke and noise, lacking in nuance". Infinityplus.co.uk gave a mixed review of the miniseries, and ultimately ended the review by stating that the comic "has considerable chutzpah, but its careless execution is regrettable". Similarly, The Guardian noted that "There are flashes of brilliance - few can control page layouts like Miller - but in general the idea of the ironic superhero seems rather dated."

Famous quotes containing the words critical and/or reception:
“You took my heart in your hand
With a friendly smile,
With a critical eye you scanned,
Then set it down,
And said: It is still unripe,
Better wait awhile;”

“He’s leaving Germany by special request of the Nazi government. First he sends a dispatch about Danzig and how 10,000 German tourists are pouring into the city every day with butterfly nets in their hands and submachine guns in their knapsacks. They warn him right then. What does he do next? Goes to a reception at von Ribbentropf’s and keeps yelling for gefilte fish!”
—Billy Wilder (b. 1906)
