Wonder Woman suggests they behead him and give his head on a spear to the police as a trophy.

Green Lantern, Plastic Man, and Wonder Woman (who absolutely hates men but is sexually attracted to Superman) discuss what to do about Batman because he’s making the whole superhero community look bad. He calls the nascent Justice League together. Dick Grayson’s face is put on a milk carton (yes, that fast), which catches the attention of Superman in Metropolis. DC Comicsīatman takes Grayson to the cave and abandons him to sleep in the cold and eat rats while he goes on patrol. But she shrugs it off because Bruce Wayne is so cool. Bruce reveals he’s had his eye on the boy for some time, which raises Vicki’s eyebrow. They go to the circus and see The Flying Graysons.

The narrative is very thin, but it begins with reporter Vicki Vale being asked on a date by Bruce Wayne. But the story itself - what little of it there is - is a rather shameful depiction of Batman The plot of All-Star Batman and Robin Hot off of his stint on Batman: Hush, Lee, one of the greatest artists to ever draw Batman, makes the project worth reading. The whole thing would be an interesting satire of grim and gritty comics if Miller wasn’t so self-serious. Dick Grayson’s subsequent reveal as the Joker 2.0 in The Dark Knight Strikes Again also makes All-Star even more disturbing given the emotional abuses Batman hurls at the boy. The Batman depicted in Year One clearly doesn’t vibe with the All-Star Batman - an absolute lunatic doing a bad Clint Eastwood impersonation. DC Comicsīut even that continuity doesn’t quite work. Miller takes Batman’s war on crime too literally.
