Batman's journey to Victoria

As the famous Victorian killer "Jack the Ripper" can definitely be regarded as one of the leaders, and this time Jack is not facing the police at the time, but Batman in the parallel universe. This in itself is a very interesting gimmick, but in the end it feels like an anticlimax.

But there is no shortage of bright spots. Because it is in the parallel universe, there is no need to be limited to the settings in the original work, so we can see: a different lawyer Dante, the last BOSS Director Gordon, and the Poison Ivy girl who received a lunch box at the beginning of the game without fighting back. . But because the film set a suspense right from the beginning, who the Ripper is. However, when the final mystery was revealed, it lacked the necessary foreshadowing, and lacked the profile of Director Gordon, which made the final reveal of the identity really abrupt. I feel that there should be better room for play.

Batman: Gotham by Gaslight quotes

  • Batman: [after fighting off the Ripper] I hope you're not hurt, Miss...?

    Selina Kyle: Damn you! You're a fool. I'll never have a better chance of stopping that butcher and you squandered it, playing the knight in shining armor! I can take care of myself.

    Batman: Don't be so sure. He's more skilled than I would have thought.

    Selina Kyle: I don't need or want your help. And before you gallantly offer to escort me home, let me assure you, I am quite capable of...

    [She looks and sees Batman is gone]

    Selina Kyle: Hmm. Well, thank you for that at least.

  • Selina Kyle: [wearing Bruce's top hat] I don't think the doorman was quite convinced that I'm a man.

    Bruce Wayne: If he was, I'd have to have him dismissed. The Dionysus Club cannot tolerate a doorman who is blind.

    Selina Kyle: You'd never do that. Have someone fired. You're too kind. I've heard.
