Frank Miller: (On doing a sequel to "Dark Knight Returns") It's really simple. I had a story. Also, I've always loved the superhero stuff-I just didn't think it was the only thing comic books should be doing-and I just really got the itch. Fifteen years away from it has given me a much different perspective. I'm much more able to approach it like I'm 7 years old than I used to be able to.
Frank Miller: Mostly I hear people say, 'Why did we attack Iraq?' for instance. Well, we're taking on an idea. Nobody questions why we, after Pearl Harbor, attacked Nazi Germany. It was because we were taking on a form of global fascism, we're doing the same thing now.
Frank Miller: You can't have virtue without sin. What I'm after is having my characters' virtues defined by how they operate in a very sinful environment. That's how you test people.
