DC's animated branch has been hard at work on several projects, the most exciting of which is an adaptation of Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns. You can watch the first trailer for the animated film below via MTV Geek! "Part 1" will be available on Blu-ray, DVD and Digital Download on September 25 and is described as follows:

...it's been a decade since Bruce Wayne hung up his cape, following most of the other superheroes who had been forced into retirement. Facing the downside of middle age, a restless Bruce Wayne pacifies his frustration with race cars and liquor -- but the bat still beckons as he watches his city fall prey to gangs of barbaric criminals known as The Mutants.

The return of Harvey Dent as Two-Face finally prompts Wayne to once again don the Dark Knight's cowl, and his dramatic capture of the villain returns him to crime-fighting -- simultaneously making him the target of law enforcement and the new hope for a desolate Gotham City. Particularly inspired is a teenage girl named Carrie, who adopts the persona of Robin and ultimately saves Batman from a brutal attack by the Mutant leader. Armed with a new sidekick, and re-energized with a definitive purpose, the Dark Knight returns to protect Gotham from foes new...and old.

Peter Weller is providing the voice of Batman/Bruce Wayne and is joined by David Selby as Commissioner Gordon, Ariel Winter as Robin, Wade Williams as Two-Face and Michael McKean as Dr. Bartholomew Wolper. The film is directed by Jay Oliva, written by Bob Goodman and executive produced by Sam Register and Bruce Timm.

WTF. So many stupid comments. Go read The Dark Knight Returns or GTFO!

[OtakuMovies]

The first part was fucking amazing, I will watch the second now.

You know what I don't get ?! Batman Year One takes place in the 1980's judging the surrounding environment of the city and Batman The Dark Knight Returns take place in the 1980's, and the way the Continiuty seems to conflict is that you have several references of Batman Year One,even Jim Gordon in his Youthful Years. So what the Fuck did Batman just turned 55 in less than a year ?!

Not that I am talking down on this, but seeing how it says the last fight begins and yet part 2 stars the real fight. Idk what I dislike about part one, maybe the fact when Alfred says "He's in his prime, he'll kill you." yet he is able to defeat the worlds notorious, primal, and maniacal villains including superman, and yet the mutant leader is like comparing the Joker to Mickie Cohen. I'm not saying I don't like it, but I was only impressed by part 2

The reason for Batman's retirement in this universe is due to the death of Jason Todd. Jason's costume is retired in the Batcave as a memorial to him. In addition, when Carrie is accepted by Bruce to become the new Robin, Alfred says to him, "Do you remember what happened to Jason?" Bruce says something like, "Jason was a good soldier, But the war goes on." You can see all of this in the graphic novel.
