For years — nay, decades — people have been arguing about which famous city Gotham City is a comic book stand-in for: Chicago or New York City. It would seem that a late night in late February has proven that it’s neither. No, Gotham must actually be Bradford, England, because that’s where Batman has showed up.
A wanted criminal was brought into a police station by the caped crusader on Feb. 25. Security stills show that “he, who is the night” looks less like something out of the mind of Neal Adams or Kelley Jones and more like Adam West … at his current age.
“Batman came into the helpdesk, stated to the staff ‘I’ve caught this one for you’ and then promptly vanished into the night to fight crime and the fear of crime in Bradford.”
And now the police know how that feels.
