'Gotham by Gaslight' or (basically) steam-punk Batman.

Victorian-set stories, that re-imagines the Bat in Victorian times, with the first (of the 2) in this seeing Bruce Wayne framed for killings carried out by Jack the Ripper. Yes, that Jack the Ripper, who has appeared in Gotham city following his killing spree in London.

The second - not as good - story sees Bruce Wayne struggling to decide whether to take up the mantle of the Bat again when Gotham City's World fair is attacked, by the 'Master of the Future'.

I'd recommend the first; the second is so-so.

The third series of this "making of Batman" show takes something of a step away from the young emo Wayne, and allows more of the villains to start to develop. There is something that really appeals to me about seeing a possible origin story of each of these characters all intertwined, with that same "who is the joker" question at the back of your mind. While I feel the number of episodes is too high for the overall plot, giving the pacing an issue or two, I still really enjoyed this series, with some epic ham acting injected throughout.
