Batman: Gotham by Gaslight

Suuuper intriguing premise, I mean, I love Batman, I love Victorian era stuff, so ya can't go wrong! It was fine, the first issue about Jack the Ripper was better than the second about the fair. Now to watch the movie!

Once again we see why Batman makes one of the most long running successful franchises in writing history. The fact that he happens to have his origins in detective fiction means that some authors can come along and give a different twist to his stories thus extending the aura of the Bat. This is exactly what Brian does in “Gaslight”. A more unexpected ending might have resulted in 5 star review but we have to be happy with what we get and we do get a lot from the plot, writing and the artwork.
Excellent read
