After a Marvel diversion, we dive deep into actual DC comics (our first comic book ep!). 1986 saw the release of two monumental genre-defining works: Watchmen and The Dark Knight Returns. While both are considered classics, Watchmen is granted more respect and is even considered one of the greatest novels of all time by many top-tier publications. Jason Baxter returns to argue that the Frank Miller-written Batman tome is actually a superior, more revolutionary work than the Alan Moore-penned gem. (To be clear, we think they're both great.) We discuss iconic splash pages, punk aesthetics, painted colors, comic creators' weird politics, paneling for an MTV era, and try not to accidentally call it The Dark Night Rises too many times.
