No telling how many were planned, but only three were announced, only two were ever published, and of those only one was even completed. The proposed All-Star series was meant to give ace #1 creators carte blanche in remaking certain characters EXACTLY as they saw them, outside of any continuity with the mainline DC universe or even other “All-Star” books. The info I found was as bizarre as the series itself.Īll-Star Batman & Robin the Boy Wonder was (intended to be) a 12 issue mini-series made by two of DC’s all-stars, Frank Miller and Jim Lee. The book was just bizarre, for reasons I go into below, so utterly bizarre I went fishing for info online, which I never do. I read that there had been one other “All-Star” book, went to buy it on Friday, and… I already owned it. Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely knocked that one out of the park. I do remember buying All-Star Superman on the strength of a recommend. The story would make more sense if I had been. I don’t know why I bought it, who recommended it to me, or what I was thinking when I purchased it. I purchased it exactly two weeks ago, but I have no memory of doing so. But I’ll get to all that in a second.įirst, and I swear this is not a joke, I don’t remember buying this book. So, All-Star Batman & Robin the Boy Wonder.
