| | James Gordon |
 | | In 2001, DC released an "Elseworlds" graphic novel, Gotham Noir, wherein JAMES GORDON, instead of rising through the ranks to become police commissioner, is forced to resign from the force under a cloud, and becomes an alcohol-sodden private eye. |
 | | But Gordon is a fallen hero, a disgraced former cop and WWII vet with a busted marriage and a career as a private eye that's heading right into the crapper. |
 | | He's also responsible for such projects as Lowlife (an autobiographical alternative comic), At the Seams, Detour, An Accidental Death, Prez and his contributions to Dark Horse Presents, which have garnered him critical acclaim and nominations for an Eisner award, two Harvey awards and an Ignatz. |
