Forget Fitzgerald’s West Egg, Gotham City is really where the decadence of the roaring ‘20s came to life. Such is the premise of upcoming Vaudeville variety show, Batman Follies of 1929.
Harking back to the hey-day of the eclectic art form, the art-deco-superhero crossover looks set to include more singing and dancing than Christian Bale would approve of (then again, he was in Newsies).
In this dimension (referred to by DC Comics fans as Earth-WTF), Mr Freeze doubles as an operatic tenor, Batgirl is a death-defying escape artist and Batman possesses tap dancing skills not to be messed with.
