December 18th, 2017 by Marc Comments

Hey! It’s Poison Ivy Vs Jack the Ripper! Obviously!

Or Ivy the Plant Lady as she’s called here. Funny, we don’t recall Ivy in Mike Mignola’s iconic graphic novel. But, hey, this is an animated movie ‘based’ on the original book.

So we guess all bets are off, huh?

Gotham By Gaslight

An adaptation of the popular 1989 tale that introduced us to a Victorian Era Dark Knight who was in pursuit of Jack the Ripper. Written by Brian Augustyn and drawn by Mike Mignola of Hellboy fame, it was the first Elseworlds story.

Batman: Gotham by Gaslight is set to release digitally January 23, ahead of a February 6 Blu-ray and DVD release.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
