Announced on Blastr, DC Comics announced that Ray Fawkes (CONSTANTINE) and Ben Templesmith (30 DAYS OF NIGHT) will be working together on a new series called GOTHAM BY MIDNIGHT. Last month, DC announced two other Gotham-centric books as well: GOTHAM ACADEMY and ARKHAM MANOR. This third book based in Gotham, which isn't about Batman is a lot like GCPD meets X-Files.

The series will spin out of BATMAN ETERNAL and will feature a team consisting of Jim Corrigan, who is also The Spectre, Lisa Drake, a new character who is a detective in the GCPD, Forensic investigator Dr Szandor Tarr, and religious consultant Sister Justine. This team will be chasing after the supernatural and things that go bump in the night, which is an ideal playground for these characters.

Fawkes said the book will have a gothic feel to it as well as some horror elements as well. With Templesmith on art duties, expect the those elements to be extremely heightened as he is a perfect fit for a book like this. GOTHAM BY MIDNIGHT goes on sale on November 26th, 2014.
