Article overview

  • McFarlane Toys introduces a new Batman figure from “The Dark Knight Returns” in the DC Comics Collector’s Edition.
  • Based on Frank Miller’s legendary 1986 graphic novel, this Batman is older, more fierce, and fights legendary enemies.
  • Featuring battle damage, multiple hands and heads, and a lamppost, the figure captures Miller’s distinctive art.
  • This 7-inch, highly articulated figure is priced at $29.99 and is scheduled for release in September 2024, with pre-orders available.

The return of the Dark Knight is a groundbreaking DC Comics graphic novel by Frank Miller which helped redefine Batman in 1986. Set in a dystopian future, this story tells the tale of an older, retired version of Bruce Wayne who has hung up his cape for some time. However, crime doesn’t stop and is back in Gotham City and worse than ever. It’s time to clean up the streets once again. This version of Batman is darker, rougher and takes no prisoners. On his journey back, he battles mutants, the return of the Joker and even an old ally, Superman. McFarlane Toys is now bringing The Dark Knight Returns version of Batman to its growing DC Comics Collector’s Edition line.

We’ve seen a DC Multiverse Dark Knight Returns wave before with the Build-A-Horse wave featuring Carrie, Superman, Joker, and the Dark Knight. Now the Dark Knight is back in his blue Batsuit and gets a new battle-damaged design. This figure captures the Frank Miller graphics that this comic is known for well. Unfortunately, he doesn’t get a cloth cape, but he does come with three pairs of hands, two interchangeable heads, and a lamppost. Batman retails for $29.99 and is set to release in September 2024. Pre-orders are available online at most retailers, including the McFarlane Toys Store.
