Went by the comic shop today, and what to my wondering eyes should appear but a trade paperback of The Dark Knight Returns, with the interior redesigned by Chip Kidd as well as the cover. When I bought the hardcover version with its Kidd-designed cover, I was awfully disappointed to see that inside, unlike the through-and-through redesign of The Dark Knight Strikes Again, it was the same old Kidd-free stuff. So why did DC get all fancy-schmancy with the less fancy-schmancy edition–and screw over the people who splurged for the hardcover in the first place?
