CARRIE KELLEY DESKTOP WALLPAPER Frank Miller's Batman

Now I know it's not Wednesday ( The BAT-BLOG posts 2 cool Batman Wallpapers every Wed ) but I couldn't wait to post this wonderful Batman Desktop Wallpaper I created! The art is by the famous comic book artist Frank Miller & it shows Carrie Kelley, with Batman, flying thru the air! When he added Robin to his version of Batman he made the character an adolescent girl! She was a really great character too with alot of personality, I loved her. This is a scene from the classic Batman graphic Novel THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS. If you have never read this book then shame on you, ha ha! It's one of the VERY BEST Batman stories....ever!

Wacky Batman Wallpaper Wednesday!

Yes! This Wednesday we're able to post new Batman Wallpapers! Last week we experienced the worst PC virus ever & was unable to post anything for a few days....aarrrgggh! But today we're on schedule. Here are 2 kick-ass Batman Wallpapers you can use to brighten your desktop or put in a MySpace layout. The 1st graphic is a scanned Golden Age Comic Book page where you see Batman bursting thru a window. As wallpaper, it looks like he is jumping thru your PC monitor. I love the "Retro 30's look" of Batman here. The 2nd graphic is by Frank Miller & is from the classic graphic novel THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS. It has the cool Carrie Kelley ( Girl Robin ) character that you don't see a lot of, very obscure. Be sure to check the BAT-BLOG ARCHIVES for many many more desktop wallpapers. We also have a Batman Wallpapers page. The links for both are supplied on the right-side of the blog.

BATMAN: THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS Graphic Novel Tribute

The BATMAN: THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS ©1986 Graphic Novel is considered by many to be a pivotal point in Bat-History. Frank Miller created an incredible story & the comic book artwork was amazing! I completely love this book & highly recommend it to anyone who loves the character. Speaking of "character", in this book Robin was a girl! Her name was Carrie Kelley & she was awesome! Well, recently I came across 2 different pieces of art done by 2 famous comic book artists who must really liked the book too. The 1st one is drawn & inked by John Byrne. The 2nd one is a sketch by Jim Lee. I think both of these guys did an amazing job & they're both a wonderful tribute! ( Please be sure to click on them for larger, more detailed, versions ).
