Dark Knight III: The Master Race – DC Comics – (2015–2017) – Volume 1 – Limited Series – #1–9

📘 Series Summary

The legendary Frank Miller returns to the world he redefined, co-writing the epic third chapter of the Dark Knight saga alongside Brian Azzarello. With visceral art by Andy Kubert and the return of iconic inker Klaus Janson, The Master Race picks up years after The Dark Knight Strikes Again. Bruce Wayne has disappeared, and Carrie Kelley—now operating as a new Batman—is hunted by the police. The world faces an existential threat when the shrunken Kandorian city is restored, unleashing a "Master Race" of fanatical Kryptonians led by the ruthless Quar.

This 9-issue Limited Series is a global superhero epic, forcing a weathered Bruce Wayne out of hiding to rally the remaining members of the Justice League. Each issue famously includes a bound-in mini-comic titled Dark Knight Universe Presents, which spotlights various heroes like The Atom, Wonder Woman, and Green Lantern as they face the Kryptonian onslaught. It is a cinematic conclusion to one of the most influential timelines in comic book history, blending Miller's gritty social commentary with blockbuster action.
