I was referring to an earlier comment that said the best bits in The
Dark Knight were taken from Alan Moore's Batman story The Killing
Joke. I wasn't referring to the movies made directly based on Moore's

take money for at least some of his film adaptations, giving the money
to the book's artists instead of pocketing it. He's a bit weird.
