Fox’s Gotham TV Season 4 Inspired By DC Comics Iconic Batman Stories No Man’s Land, The Killing Joke and The Long Halloween.

Comicbook reports:

      “Most of the characters on that page are the ones that are going to be teaming up,” [Actor Cameron] Monaghan said. “They’re interacting with each other. I do think that there’s something about the nature of the Long Halloween and what that story is about things acting up between these different characters who are all having the arc and causing their own sort of unique layer of chaos around them. Basically getting bounced between one or the other, they’re all taking over cities, and doing things in interesting ways. I think that a lot of what we’re doing this season is very inspired by The Long Halloween and similar comics. It’s also an awesome thing. It’s one of my favorite ever.

      “I do think there’s a lot that’s inspired by that. Obviously we have No Man’s Land and we have The Killing Joke and we have other major story arcs that we’re playing. We’re really getting into it this year. I think the way that the story escalates is something that shifts and is not anything the show has done before. I think it’s going to be a really unique experience. Especially by the past few episodes, it’s going to be really … it’s pretty insane. I hope that people react to it well and I know its one of the most exciting things of where the story is going and how much they’re going for is really cool.”

Interesting.

Gotham airs on Thursdays at 8/7c on FOX.
