This does not make me happy...

How does Miller still get work?

So in Orpheus's opinion , which he is certainly entitled to ,Miller and Lee had no chemistry on ASBR. While Miller's story was certainly crazy, Lee's art was what brought and kept a lot of reader to the book, myself included.

Frankly speaking, the only thing that really concerns me is the fact that Miller is seriously unwell.

It's been pretty obvious if you've seen even one picture of him recently. He's clearly not been well. I am glad to see that addressed. Hopefully people will stop mocking him for how he looks now.

This will be a perfect bookend to that Forever adaptation.

This. He's looked bad for a while and now he's apparently not able to draw? Thats pretty serious.

Frank has never had the ability to draw

Sounds like it could be a fun book. Not needed, but what is?

Jim Lee on art? No thanks.

Greatest comic book artist of all time.

There I said it.

About Frank Miller's health: seriously, Frank Miller is apparently going through chemotherapy for cancer treatment. He has no hair, not even eyebrows now. He had always been thin, but now he obviously is very frail and easily exhausted. Here is Frank Miller on September 13th, 2014 trying to walk to attend a tribute for him at the Deauville American Film Festival awards and he was unable to even walk on his own. He had to abandon even using canes and needed to be pushed in a wheelchair. It's apparent why he might need writer Scott Snyder as a writing assistant to do the typing for him at a steady pace at this point.

Jesus thats heartbreaking.

How does Miller still get work?

For this, this is probably charity. Miller, as stated, is obviously quite ill and probably needs money. So Snyder assembles an all-star line up of artists and they make a book that gets Miller tons of money.

I personally didn't care for the story either, but I do think it would have worked better if Miller drew it.

[BloodOps]

Hell no.

TDKR should of stayed a one hit classic, instead a washed up Miller gave us the sequel a decade or so ago and that was one of the worst Batman stories ever.

[CBR News]

CBR has confirmed previous reports of a potential Frank Miller and Scott Snyder co-written sequel to DC's celebrated "Dark Knight Returns."
