It looks like The Dark Knight Rises will have a “Gangs of Gotham City” vibe to it. The latest commercial for Christopher Nolan’s Batman finale is out – thanks to Spinoff Online. Nolan has been reported saving he was inspired by A Tale of Two Cities.
There are moments when it feels as if Batman wins the police to his side while Bane has his army (are they his terrorists or a recruits from Gotham’s underbelly?)
In the scene when the bridges blow it makes me think perhaps the new film will be partly inspired by No Man’s Land. In that Batman crossover a massive earthquake hits Gotham City – the government declares it a no man’s land and the gangs carve up their terrorities in the remains. Bane acted as an agent of Lex Luthor in the storyline.
Here’s the latest ad below:
Here’s a link to No Man’s Land Volume One if you’re interested in reading that classic crossover.
