Yes, you read that right: Frank Miller is returning to the TDKR universe with a one-shot to be released on Dec 11, with Rafael Grampa on art.
The focus presumably will be on Carrie Kelly as Batwoman and the children of Superman and Wonder Woman.
More info and preview art.

The art reminds me of Frank Quitely. It's got a similar style, and I typically dislike Quitely's art but Grampa's seems to be easier on me. The eyes are really stylized, but maybe that's just because he's giving Johnathan Kent a really big head for a baby to emphasize that he's super smart. Still a tiny bit off putting though.

I like Carrie Kelly's Batwoman design on the cover.

Very excited about this! Fitting that my copy of Batman #62 with the Miller variant cover came in the mail today. I love Carrie Kelly, and especially her role in Master Race, so it's exciting to see Miller developing the next generation here! Last Crusade was really good, so hopefully this has a similar quality!
That's a good note on Quitely - I'd say also Burnham and Raffaele Ienco have a similar sense of line as Grampa. I'm also not a huge fan of that general style, but the preview art is actually appealing to me, and pretty exciting!

Agreed, love the design. It's really good, and I like the sort of double cape thing or whatever you call it she's got going. Originally Posted by the illustrious mr. kenway

Tomasi tried, but Frank specifically shot that down. Originally Posted by Vakanai
