Ask The Watcher - Gotham City Gotham City, New Jersey (along with Metropolis, Delaware, and a handful of other cities on the Eastern Seaboard) is a statistical anomaly in the realm of parallel Earths. Without an actual Gotham City or Metropolis to decentralize the superhuman community, Manhattan tends to become quickly overpopulated with superheroes, villains, mutants, monsters, aliens, and the undead, which naturally leads to a high level of chaos and confusion. When the king's messengers arrived to scout out the area, the clever Gothamites were engaged in such activities as trying to fish the moon out of a pond, drowning an eel, joining hands around a thorn bush to prevent a cuckoo from escaping, and simply running around madly in circles. www.shaftagents.com /watcher2.htm   (451 words)

Talk:Gotham City - DC Animated Universe What episode was Gotham City called "New Gotham?"

Resource Directory Gotham, or "Gotam", was the name of a real and often-ridiculed town in England, whose residents had a reputation for madness. According Gerald Leonard Cohen's Origin of New York City's Nickname ‘The Big Apple' (New York: Peter Lang, 1991), while "apple" in American slang means "fellow" and "big apple" means "big shot," the first consistent use of the term to apply to New York City came in the 1920s. Walter Winchell used it in a 1927 column to refer to Broadway ("Broadway is the Big Apple, the Main Stem, the goal of all ambition, the pot of gold at the end of a drab and somewhat colorless rainbow."). www.gothamcenter.org /faq.shtml   (742 words)

IESB.net - Movie News, Reviews, Interviews and More! - Film Geekz: Detailed Map of Gotham City Most people know that Batman lives in Gotham City, and that this fictional place is a barely disguised version of New York City — so much so that in real life, NYC is sometimes nicknamed Gotham. Gotham is modeled after NYC in architecture and atmosphere — although the dark, brooding aspects of New York are emphasized and exaggerated. The city has been situated at the shores of ‘Lake Gotham’ but is more usually placed somewhere on the Eastern Seaboard of the US — in varying degrees of proximity to Metropolis, Superman’s home town. www.iesb.net /index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3957&Itemid=99   (960 words)
