BATMAN GOTHAM BY GASLIGHT TP (DC COMPACT COMICS EDITION)
Description
Batman: Gotham by Gaslight is a landmark Elseworlds tale that relocates Gotham to a 19th-century, gaslit setting, blending Victorian atmosphere with Batman's vigilante justice. In this moody noir, the Dark Knight faces the legendary Jack the Ripper in a battle of wits and morality. Written by Brian Augustyn with art from Mike Mignola and Eduardo Barreto, the story pairs atmospheric, high-contrast visuals with a tightening suspense that redefines what Batman stories can be. This edition collects Gotham by Gaslight and Batman: Master of the Future, presenting a self-contained arc that stands apart from regular continuity while enriching the mythos with questions of identity, justice, and vengeance. The compact format emphasizes concise storytelling and cinematic pacing, inviting new readers and longtime fans alike to experience a gothic, pulp-inspired Gotham and a Batman who must confront humanity as much as crime.
