BATMAN GOTHAM BY GASLIGHT DC COMPACT COMICS EDITION

Collects Batman: Gotham by Gaslight #1 and Batman: Master of the Future #1, 1989-91.

Step into the shadows of Victorian Gotham where the Dark Knight confronts Jack the Ripper and a mad prophet in this genre-defining Elseworlds classic. Before Elseworlds became a staple of DC storytelling, there was Gotham by Gaslight. This groundbreaking tale transports Batman to the streets of late 19th-century Gotham -- with its dark, atmospheric visuals and gripping narrative, this story redefined the boundaries of Batman’s world. The saga continues with Master of the Future, a thrilling sequel where Batman contends with a deranged prophet seeking to halt Gotham’s evolution into the 20th century. Both stories deliver a unique blend of gothic aesthetics and superhero intrigue. Outstanding artwork and a dark, intriguing storyline. I like it. - Bud
