Batman: Gotham By Gaslight is considered the first true ‘Elseworlds‘ story, and is often cited as a classic of that subgenre. Written by Brian Augustyn and illustrated by Mike Mignola, the standalone graphic novel proposes a world where Batman emerged in the Victorian era and investigated the Jack The Ripper Murders. It really is a fantastic book and one great high concept.
WB Animation recently announced it as their next project and now some featurette footage has leaked. Check it out below.
