Description

In a unique twist on the classic tale, Gotham by Gaslight transports readers to a late 19th-century version of Gotham City. In this richly illustrated graphic novel, Bruce Wayne dons the mantle of Batman in an era where Victorian sensibilities clash with the growing threat of crime. The atmosphere is steeped in fog and intrigue, presenting a Gotham teetering on the edge of chaos as a brutal killer stalks its darkened streets.

As the story unfolds, Batman is pitted against a notorious figure from history, creating a compelling antagonist that drives the narrative forward. The intricate artwork captures the essence of a world illuminated by flickering gas lamps, emphasizing the tension and drama that surrounds Gotham's savior. Readers will marvel at the stark visuals that reflect both the grandeur and the grim reality of the time.

Amidst the backdrop of societal issues and the emergence of a vigilante, themes of justice, revenge, and the fight against corruption resonate throughout the plot. The collaboration between the authors crafts a gripping tale that blends horror and heroism, making it an unforgettable entry in the Batman saga.
