I would personally love to see a version done in the style of Sin City. Larger than life characters, scenery chewing, acted on a sound stage with almost entirely CGI backgrounds. A stylised and gothic city fully realised (the city should really be a character in its own right), and even if not black and white, lean hard into the high contrast- paint the frame with shadows. And give Batman a CGI cape so you can really bring the comic look to life.

Dude, I am actually 100% on this. Hell, even in the same vien of an anthology woth loose links together! A batman story, riddler one, joker, gordon, the regular cops.

That is a bitchin idea and now i am sad we never got that during the Uber Comic Book stylized phase we had for a there.

I would totally watch an anthology, just skip the genesis story entirely. I’d actually like low stakes stories, maybe just 3 nights in the life of Batman? A bus full of children have been abducted for ransom, but is there more to the Joker’s prank? The cops are after Catwoman, but was she framed on this occasion, was it actually a different villain behind the heist? And finally, a violent gang war between Dent and Penguin spills onto the streets.

Perfext. Just small stories with maybe the conclusion of Bruce exhausted...just sitting in front of the fireplace...and quietly talking tk Alfred...not about his job. Not about crime...

Just an actual 1 on 1 talk...

Perfect ending. And they both know it’ll be the same night after night. Perhaps the middle story could focus a fair amount on Bruce Wayne out of costume, so we get to see both sides of the character. Oh, we should definitely get narration from Batman, filling in the time jumps and explaining his pursuit of clues.
