Here it is — your first look at Gotham, the new Batman prequel TV series. A 45-second version of this aired during 24: Die Another Day, but now here’s the full two-minute trailer. Including glimpses at the Young Riddler, Young Catwoman, Young Penguin… and Young Batman.
First thoughts — this looks pretty fun. The best parts, not surprisingly, are the edgy cop drama parts, where we see Harvey Bullock mentoring Jim Gordon — and yeah, that’s kind of weird, but whatever. The hints at a political storyline involving Gotham City falling apart and various people angling for power look neat too. The worst parts, at least in the trailer, seem to be all the glimpses of various Bat-characters when they were young and cute. Including Catwoman, already wearing the uniform, and Poison Ivy.
