Batman: Gotham By Gaslight gets a solid DC Compact Comics edition featuring two tales

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 gaslit streets of 19th-century Gotham, where he faces the terror of Jack the Ripper in a battle of wits and shadows. 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.

This volume collects Batman: Gotham by Gaslight #1 and Batman: Master of the Future #1.

Story: Brian Augustyn

Batman: Gotham by Gaslight gets a new statue from Sideshow

In DC Comics‘ classic Elseworlds story Gotham by GaslightBatman must uncover the identity of Jack the Ripper in 19th-century Gotham City. 

Inspired by this iconic tale set in an alternate reality, the Batman: Gotham by Gaslight Premium Format Figure by Sideshow captures the story’s dark and foreboding atmosphere. 

The Batman: Gotham by Gaslight Premium Format Figure depicts Gotham’s new guardian angel crouched atop a Victorian-era Gotham City rooftop as steam billows from surrounding pipes. He keeps his grappling hook at the ready while using his detective skills to track down the serial killer who has framed him for murder.

This mixed-media statue has detailed sculptural elements as well as a fully tailored fabric cape. The cape has wire in the hem for dynamic posing, and the semi-flexible grappling hook rope adds additional dimension to the piece. Batman’s costume features a stitched-together look throughout the sculpt to reflect the historical setting.

The Batman: Gotham by Gaslight Premium Format Figure is a stylish reimagining of the Dark Knight that will make a dramatic centerpiece in any Batman collection.

Batman: Gotham By Gaslight takes place at the turn of the century as America’s continued industrial revolution is to be showcased at a World’s Fair hosted by Gotham City. But while the world prepares to witness the glittery glory of Gotham’s technological advances, there is a killer loose in the city’s darkest shadows. Preying on the city’s women, this killer is as precise as he is cruel. As Police Commissioner James Gordon tries to calm the fears of Gotham’s citizens regarding the butcher called Jack the Ripper, the masked vigilante Batman enacts his own detective work – with the help of confident, capable Selina Kyle – to stop the Ripper’s murderous spree. Witness a world in flames as the notorious serial killer’s controlled savagery meets the calculated stealth of the Dark Knight.

Alan Burnett is co-producer. Executive Producers are Sam Register and Bruce Timm (Batman: The Killing Joke). Benjamin Melniker and Michael Uslan are executive producers.
