Fox Plans Batman-Inspired Series, Gotham!

[ansatsusha_gouki]

Gotham City is coming to the small screen! Deadline is reporting that Fox has made a series commitment to "Gotham," a new live-action show that will follow the adventures of a young Detective James Gordon. The series hails from "The Mentalist" creator Bruno Heller.

First appearing in "Detective Comics" #27 (the 1939 comic that also debuted Batman), Commissioner James Gordon is the creation of Bill Finger and Bob Kane. He was previously played on the 1960's "Batman" television show by Neil Hamilton. Gary Oldman most recently portrayed the character in Christopher Nolan's big screen trilogy.

While Gordon's adventures may make use of familiar Batman villains, the Dark Knight himself is not planned to be a part of the series.

Have you ever seen the Mentalist bro?

Shit is the worst. The worst of the worst. I watched half an episode and almost went through menopause. Classic old lady television.

I agree. Comics are layered with multiple characters. And sometimes it's the stories that you neglected to tell that can be the best. Don't shit on it, I think it's a great idea.....You'll hang on every episode all the way to the final season just to see the Bat signal in the final episode.

Another sad day for comic book fans, Hollywood about to turn all your favorite comic book heroes into the next twilight craze

I've never seen it but I'll have to check a YouTube video or something.

That's what I'm hoping for. Something about a regular dude that keeps you drawn in. I know that backlash is going to be fierce if it flops though.
