Summary: Frank Miller Speaks!
Review: For fans of Frank Miller's work, this book is a must-purchase. Essentially a collection of interviews that he has done over the years with The Comics Journal, this book covers the man's entire career, from his early fanzine work right on up to DK2.

In typical TCJ fashion, the interviews are quite in-depth and span a wide range of topics. Miller has always been a big proponent of fighting against censorship and sounds off on the self-imposed censoring that the comic companies do on a regular basis.

Fans of his seminal works, Ronin, The Dark Knight Returns and Sin City, will be delighted to see him talk at length about each of these titles. He also goes into detail about his stint on Daredevil and his motivation for doing a Dark Knight sequel. He also touches upon everything in between -- including Martha Washington, Hard Boiled and 300. Also, Miller talks a bit about his feelings on 9/11 (he moved back to NYC when it happened) and how it informs his work.

In short, this is a fascinating book on a true artist and a genius in the comics field. In addition to the interviews there is a great collection of art from all of his major works and also rare, unpublished stuff as well. Highly recommended!
