Just to clarify a few things: I definitely overstated the whole, guns and killing thing towards the beginning, and the few times I mention Gotham by Gaslight, I’m not trying to put that story down.

Batman and Lovecraftian cosmic horror mysteries are made for each other. It allows him to be at his finest as a warrior and a super genius polymathic intellectual while keeping him close to his roots as the world's greatest detective. I love this comic and film. If only a version of the adaptation of it was set in modern times.

Having recently watched The Amazing Screw on Head's pilot based on Mike Mignola's comic. It's such a shame they didn't use his art style in this similar to that. Heck I would've taken even the Hellboy animated movies style while watered down still encapsulates the angular sharp style Mike is known for. And that's not to say the movie is ugly, I just wish these animated DC movies would look more distinct from one another more often and change it up. Good vid.
