Line 1:

* [[Alternate Character Interpretation]]: ''The Dark Knight Returns'' and ''The Dark Knight Strikes Again'' presented Batman as a dangerously-obsessed, deeply-disturbed, paranoid control freak who is possibly a mentally ill [[Sociopathic Hero]] as opposed to the stalwart Caped Crusader of the Golden and Silver ages and the Adam West series. This interpretation is touched on [[Depending on the Writer]] and sometimes it is the basis for whole story arcs.
** One example is his creation of the Brother [[Mk I]] satellite which was created by Batman to keep an eye on all of the meta-humans, hero and villain alike.
Line 6:
** This is hinted at in ''[[The Dark Knight Saga|The Dark Knight]]''.
*** Another issue of interpretation is whether he became a man the night his parents died, or if he never truly grew

* [[Complete Monster]]: [[The Joker]].
* [[Fanon Discontinuity]]: Lots of people like to imagine that ''[[The Dark Knight Strikes Again]]'' doesn't exist. And even though [[Word of God]] confirms that ''[[All-Star Batman and Robin The Boy Wonder]]'' is this book's prequel, plenty of fans are happy to ignore this.
Line 17:
{{quote|'''Mutant Gang Member''': ''(after being attacked by a bat)'' It's just a [[All Star Batman and Robin|goddamned]] [[Goddamned Bats|bat]].}}
* [[Hype Backlash]]
* [[Older Than They Think]]:
** The Swastika pastie woman who attracted so much disbelief in ''[[All Star DC Comics|All Star Batman and Robin]]''.
** In a spin-off of this comic, Miller very subtly, that is, not at all, made [[Donald Trump]] an ally of the Joker, that helped win the elections for president on that world. Many were shocked by this, believing Miller was a republican, but in this comic [[Ronald Reagan]] is similarly portrayed in horrible light.
* [[Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny]]: Batman vs. Superman. Booyah again.
* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]]: The fact it's getting made, for starters. The casting of [[Peter Weller]] as the voice of Batman was also met with general fan approval.
* [[Complete Monster]]: Aside from Joker in Part 2, the Mutant Leader from Part 1 might qualify as well. Before we even see him, it's established that he leads the mutants in their atrocities such as kidnapping a child for ransom and murdering him even after getting the money. When he first appears, it's made clear that he's a brutal, animalistic thug who plans to kill Gordon and Batman in horrifyingly gruesome ways and while fighting Batman he expresses cannibalistic tendencies.
