Away From Human Memory: Editing And Composition In Frank Miller's 'The Dark Knight Returns'

Away From Human Memory: Editing And Composition In Frank Miller's 'The Dark Knight Returns': Recently I read Miguel Corti's experimental comic Watchmen #13. A cut-up pdf created by numbering and randomizing the panels in Alan Moore and David Gibbon's Watchmen, the book is laid out along variations of the original's consistent nine-panel grid. It is a compelling read, one that made me think about the other major superhero comic of the same era. Another book that pursues it's narrative through a strict system of grids.
