The Dark Knight Returns is out of continuity, so that might be why it's not shown, as far as I know The Cult isn't. Also I've always thought of it more as a monster truck than a tank.

Yeah, Frank Millers missing is weird. They are also missing 1988's Batman: The Cult batmobile, which is a pretty awesome piece of machinery.

Also: 1992, Legends of the Dark Knight--good lord! Please tell me that was a joke. Looks like Batman must've bought that one from Ace & Gary.
