[tps_title]7. Batman: Earth One[/tps_title]
Set in a parallel world called “Earth One,” Batman’s origin is a little more brutal this time around. Writer Geoff Johns gives a unique take on the Dark Knight’s origin, and boy is it dark! A serial killer is kidnapping and killing young girls and a young Jim Gordon and Harvey Bullock must find this madman before he kills again. A viewer of Gotham might find a similarity in the portrayal of Alfred as an ex-military tough but tender guardian. The origin also includes the Penguin, who happens to be the Mayor of Gotham.
