Combining the trend of direct-to-DVD adatations of DC comic books such as Superman: Doomsday with the multiple personalities of The Animatrix, I present to you Batman: Gotham Knight, hitting home video on July 8th:
This comes hot on the heels of the recently-released Justice League: New Frontier, which I hope to review soon:
I'm a fan of DC Comics and find their animated adaptations to be consistently above average (unlike, say, live-action Marvel films). I love how energetically DC is pursuing the home video market as a viable alternative to cinematic releases — and since I'm not a fan of Christian Bale, these DVD releases will give me an alternative to The Dark Knight this summer. Keep 'em coming!!
Dayton Ward has compiled to his blog three alternative takes on the Dark Knight trailer. If the real thing looked like any of these, I'd be first in line!
