Gotham City

CON LIFE

SDCC 2017 / Day 3 Wrap-Up

Another Comic-Con day and more Comic-Con news! And boy what a day. There are a fair amount of trailers to post so I'll try not to blather on too much.

The Case For Gotham

Since it’s debut back on September 22nd, 2014, Gotham has been met with some harsh criticism from the most hardcore of Batfans. A lot of the hatred comes from people not liking the show’s creative take on the origins of some of our favorite characters from the Batfamily and their villains. Personally, I think they’re missing the point. In my humble opinion, this show does NOT serve as an origin to Batman, or even to Commissioner James Gordon. This show is an alternative look at the origins of Gotham City itself, and those that would inhabits it’s dangerous streets.

Gotham Teaser

'Gotham' Gets Series Order And Trailer

Fox wasted no time in announcing that it was picking up the series 'Gotham' guaranteeing at least thirteen episodes. While I'm fairly confident they'll make it a full season, this is Fox we're talking about here. The series will serve as an origin story for Gotham City itself, along with several well known Batfamily characters. We'll see newly orphaned Bruce Wayne dealing with the loss of his parents. And if the teaser trailer is any indication, we'll see quite a few villainous faces as well. We're looking forward to this series, while praying that Fox does not screw this up as they have so many times before. What do you guys think? Excited for this new show? Ready for a side of the Bat we haven't seen on television or in the movies?
