Some comic news for y'all: Frank Miller is writing the first six issues of All-Star Batman & Robin.

For those not keeping score at home, the "All-Star" line of comics is, essentially, DC's answer to the Marvel Ultimate line -- and holy cow, they've got some great talent for it.

I mean, sure, I dislike Dark Knight Strikes Again so much that I've actually refused to acknowledge its existance at several points. But Miller's 80s Batman and Daredevil stories were a huge part of what got me into comics in the first place.

And I do love Batman so.

I might actually buy this one. Especially since, by my calculations, Astonishing will be wrapping up around then.

God, Astonishing. I still haven't bought the last issue. Or anything the last two weeks.

Maybe tonight I go for a walk.
