History
The Gotham Gazette is a metropolitan newspaper based out of Gotham City with nation-wide syndication.[citation needed]
Earth-Two
The first version of the Gotham Gazette would print stories about the local vigilante Batman and some of his victories over criminals like the Joker. This caught the attention of the madman, who called to the newspaper editor and forced him to print some of Joker's own victories over Batman. When the Dark Knight learned of this new scheme, he captured the Joker and allowed the Gotham Gazette to continue printing the usual stories.[1]
Editor Seaver prevented events like this from happening ever again, by refusing to publish anything that was requested by any sort of criminal.[2]
Some time later, the Gazette hired the talented photographer Vicki Vale, known for her work on the "Picture Magazine", and featured some of her pictures including the evidence of the murder of Bruce Wayne, which happened to be just a misunderstanding.[3]
The editor of the Gotham Gazette usually printed stories featuring the local heroes Batman and Robin, but after a few years, he started to focus more on the Dynamic Duo's arsenal against crime. For this reason, the Gazette printed several stories about the Batmobile, the Batplane and the Bat-Signal.[4]
Shortly after, a new editor started working on the Gazette. His name was Jack "Five Star" Thorpe and he started a crusade against a criminal known as "The Artisan". However, when Bruce Wayne became a reporter for the Gazzette, it was revealed that Thorpe was in fact The Artisan and was using the Gazette to cover his crimes. Thorpe was soon captured by Batman and Robin.[5]
New Earth
The Gotham Gazette was created in the early 1800's by Edward Eliot's grandfather.
The newspaper reported significant events including the paralyzing of Barbara Gordon at the hands of Joker.[6]
Years later, the Gazette reported the uncertain status of Batman in an article written by Vicki Vale.[7] Weeks later, the newspaper would publish an article confirming Batman's return to Gotham.[6]
Notes
- The regular morning edition of the newspaper costs 35 cents.[7]
- Every Saturday the Gazette publishes a piece called Gotham is.
- The Gotham Gazette continually loses to the Daily Planet.
