I'm betting they'll follow Frank Miller's (300, Sin City) Dark Knight I graphic novel. I always preferred Marvel to DC as a boy. I actually dreamt of working for Marvel as a young boy. I can still pencil pretty well too if I'm allowed to brag a littleBatman however is the only DC character I really liked and Miller's Batman the one I liked best of all.
I am still miffed at how the story lines have been mangled in the movies. Marvel is split between Marvel/Disney (Marvel Cinematic Universe), Fox (X-Men) and Sony (Spidey) and things are getting ugly. DC has been far less successful on the big screen but seems to be doing well on the small screen.
Supes vs Batman is crucial for DC. It is the lynchpin for plans to do Justice League. If this movie bombs, it's all over folks. I'm pulling for them.
Wasn't Mike Grell the best Batrman artist?
We fully agree Tim. Dark Knight was Miller penned. Incidentally Miller came to DC from Marvel. A bit of trivia there.

Well the DC guys did do something in Man of Steel that sort of sets up the false god premise of S vs B. They showed Supes to have less control of his emotions than all Supes prior. There was a lot of uproar from the DC purists when shockingly they had Supes break Gen. Zod's neck. It was if I'm not mistaken the first time Superman actually killed somebody on the screen (he has in the books)![]()
This story line makes no sense. Superman vs Batman?? No contest. Movie should last 30 seconds.
