(Oh and including Gotham's World's Fair and a tie-in to H.H. have provided the core of the 'Gotham by Gaslight / Master of the Future' stories while also adding original plot points, DC Comics cameos, and stunning action sequences that heighten the source material. Fans of the 'Elseworlds' tales who are looking for a direct translation instead of an adaptation may be disappointed. Let's get a couple of general things out of the way before dipping into some more specifics of Batman: Gotham by Gaslight. (The following review deals only with the Blu-ray.) Batman: Gotham by Gaslight is available now on Digital HD, Blu-ray/DVD and 4K. It's the most unique-looking animated DC tale in years, and its killer reveal will make you want to watch it again immediately. Visually, Gotham by Gaslight attempts to replicate Mignola's incredible use of shadow-along with liters of black ink-and German Expressionism influence, while also playing up a steampunk aesthetic in order to show off a Gotham poised to embrace turn-of-the-century technology. The film succeeds in faithfully adapting the look, tone, and heart of the stories, but also in adding new flourishes that should delight longtime Batman fans. Sam Liu directs Batman: Gotham by Gaslight, a briskly paced 78-minute movie written by Jim Krieg and adapted from Augustyn's pair of Victorian-era tales. 'Gotham by Gaslight' also inspired a follow-up story in Augustyn and artist Eduardo Barreto's tale 'Master of the Future.' Now, in the latest DC Comics Animated Original Movies installment, both of the famous 'Elseworlds' stories come to life in a unique way while also giving fans a new spin on the tale. The success of that one-off, which saw Batman in Victorian-era Gotham hunting Jack the Ripper, inspired the 'Elseworlds' line of comics which allowed DC's most famous heroes and infamous villains to go on adventures outside of canon. Before the 'Elseworlds' imprint ever came to DC Comics, there was Brian Augustyn and Mike Mignola's comic one-shot, Gotham by Gaslight.
