Welcome to a world of endless possibilities… In 1989, Brian Augustyn, Mike Mignola, P. Craig Russell, David Hornung, and John Workman created comics history with GOTHAM BY GASLIGHT, an alternative-history tale that featured a novice Dark Knight investigating a series of murders in Victorian-era Gotham committed by Jack the Ripper. The success of this one-shot led to the creation of the Esleworlds imprint, which gave writers and artists the freedom to reinterpret the Caped Crusaders origin and adventures throughout different time periods or realities. What would happen if Batman became a literal creature of the night, a Western adventurer, or a high-seas swashbuckler? These questions – and more – are answered in these pages. Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 1,400 pages, full color. Teen Cover price $175.00.

1st printing. By Alex M. Wainer. This is a book about the comics genre and language, how these were used to create Batman, and how that character's longevity is largely due to the medium's unique formal qualities. It argues that Batman's core appeal is his mythic nature which allows him to transcend changes in reader tastes, the vicissitudes of the comics industry, and the changing media landscape. It is a study of how the formal aspects of comics are able to evoke uniquely mythic qualities that have made Batman such a long-lived cultural phenomenon. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 208 pages, Text. Cover price $40.00.

Presenting the classic tale of the Dark Knight from writer Jeph Loeb and artist Tim Sale for the first time in DC's upscale Absolute format! This epic continues the story of THE LONG HALLOWEEN. It is early in Batman's crimefighting career, when James Gordon, Harvey Dent, and the vigilante himself were all just beginning their roles as Gotham's protectors. Once a town controlled by organized crime, Gotham City suddenly finds itself being run by lawless freaks, such as Poison Ivy, Mr. Freeze, and the Joker. Witnessing his city's dark evolution, the Dark Knight completes his transformation into the city's greatest defender. He faces multiple threats, including the seeming return of a serial killer called Holiday. Batman's previous investigation of Holiday's killings revealed that more than one person was responsible for the murders. So the question remains: who is committing Holiday's crimes this time? And how many will die before Batman learns the truth?
