Was the Batman movie shooting imitated from scene in 1986 comic?

The horrific shooting at the screening of The Dark Knight Rises in Colorado late last night bears eerie similarities to a scene in the 1986 comic Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. In the comic, a crazed, gun-toting loner walks into a movie theatre and begins shooting it up, killing three in the process. The passage concludes with the media blaming Batman for inspiring the shooting, though he is not involved in the incident at all.

The 1986 comic, written and drawn by Frank Miller, was a key inspiration for the Chris Nolan Batman films. It helped to reimagine the character away from his Saturday morning cartoon image and into a dark, grim avenger. The point of this particular scene in the comic was to show just how far Gotham has fallen since Batman had retired.

Was the shooter imitating this scene from the comic? Maybe, although in the scene the shooter is portrayed as inspired by his disgust at pornography and heavy metal music. The police’s investigation will surely reveal more in the near future.

Editor's note: This post has been updated to reflect the correct date of the 1986 comic, The Dark Knight Returns

  • Greetings! As a self-confessed Batman fanatic and expert, the answer is a big, fat yes.

  • he was ............... another manchurian Drome had done something against energies of Love & Peace and finally against the Light/ ascenscion~higher mind energies and so forth . Darkness still creates havoc upon this planet. Lightworkers, indigoes, and anyone claiming to be on the side of Peace, Love and Light, must do harder job to combat these negative energies. This happen, in Colorado, becouse humanity is still living in reality tv, hamburgers and soda, taking prescription drugs and too many not so recreational , and lives by drama of yesterdays news.

    It's a learning process, everyday.

    This Olimpic "crap" will only happen if humanity allows it with its "super" negative energy of daily lives.Darkness feeds on this , continious so far, stuff.

    I wish, we all just donated 10 minutes of meditation, peaceful thinking and speaking and we will change this worl in a flick of a finger, in one day.

    ............but, we still are affected by made for tv drama by the dark force.......................where was GFL ?..............not in Aurora apparently. Shit, they "stopped" nukes before...............................................

  • we need peaceful world , no question about it. yet, such events are , somewhat~good tools for learning process what needs to be done in order to change this unfortunate and negative times we live today.
