Batman: Gotham knight [videorecording]

2008
Videos and DVDs
Six chronological, animated stories of the caped crusader, that fill in the gaps between 'Batman Begins' and 'The Dark Knight'. Combining the talents of three standout anime studios with noted anime directors, Shojiro Nishimi, Futoshi Higashide, Hiroshi Morioka, Yasuhiro Aoki and Toshiyuki Kubooka, the series charts Batman's progression from gifted amateur to fully-fledged crime-avenger. 'Have I Got a Story for You' tells how a group of kids are variously affected by their encounters with Batman. In 'Crossfire', Gotham City's police force are forced to conquer their distrust of the Dark Knight when they come under fire from the mob. 'Field Test' focusses on the vast array of weaponry and gadgets at Batman's disposal as he fights injustice, while 'In Darkness Dwells' has the caped-crusader locking horns with the sewer dwelling 'Killer Croc' and 'The Scarecrow'. 'Working Through Pain' explores Bruce Wayne's gruelling training regime, instigated by a mysterious Indian woman named Cassandra, while the final chapter, 'Deadshot', draws the chapters to a conclusion, with Batman having to stop a ruthlessly efficient assassin with few moral qualms.
