The Dark Knight Takes on Jack the Ripper

By Sam Burns

Check out an extended look at the next upcoming DC Animated Feature - Batman: Gotham By Gaslight.

An adaptation of the popular 1989 tale that introduced the Victorian Era Dark Knight who was in pursuit of Jack the Ripper, the original comic was written by Brian Augustyn and drawn by Mike Mignola of Hellboy fame. Batman: Gotham by Gaslight is largely considered to be the very first “Elseworlds” tale. At 48 pages, the original comic is relatively slim, meaning the movie version will offer an expanded version of the story, something that’s sure to delight fans of its cobblestone-paved world.

No release date as of yet but expect this to release near Winter 2017.
