While I didn't find the story that special, it was cool seeing Batman in that setting and facing Jack. The artwork by Mignola was the shinny star of this comic.

the most unrealistic thing is that Freud didn't mention mothers

[@thefollower2933]

Wow, honestly surprised how short the original story was in comparison to the movie, and how different it is. Honestly prefer the movie, but this is pretty good too.

[@Nothingtoseehere-eo7zq]

To answer your question at the beginning highway men would literally just wait until a stage coach showed up to rob them back then

[@atilab99draws58]

in other words spring heeled jack vs jack the ripper, awesome

[@thereverend6114]

Wow, so the animated movie was better...

[@nobod2567]

But James Gordon is Jack the Ripper instead of Jacob Packer.

Lowkey though. I kinda liked the mad man Gordon story who indoctrinated his family as well much better then whoever the fuck this guy was

if you don't have any taste.

How tf did I only find you when looking for sandman your the best narrator

[@Cartoonicus]

I thought the Film adaptation had a weird twist with it being Gordon but now I'm REALLY confused.

[@ghostboy6714]

thks for the spoiler

[@Cartoonicus]

Don't worry, it won't make any sense anyway.

[@hunterlangley8287]

It had been like 27 years since the book came out, I imagine the changes they made were to extend the story and add some much needed surprises for old fans of the original.

Spoiler alert

They’ve been doing elseworld since like the 60s haven’t they? Even flash all the way back then was dealing with the multiverse

[@vxicepickxv]

Landlords don't care about serial killers.

[@stickthesecond5085]

kinda sucks they went with the bruce tim art style when this was better

[@vicaldama9314]

Fuck yeah man . ain't that the truth!

[@renoskous.4425]

Its really sad that movie directors take the story of the book and change it in to their own imagination, they violated the ownership rights of the original creator.. if i was the writer of the book i'd sue the director for violating my ownership rights..

[@DailyDoseMain]

Wow that's what everyone gets so hyped about? That was really only ok because it had batman in it.
But cool video nice work

[@TheUnoriginalDrCorgi]

I mean the movie was better imo, they did change the story. Ig that is the reason tho lmfao

[@drudru8811]
