''Batman: Gargoyle of Gotham'' is a 2023 {{Elseworld}} comic book written and drawn by Rafael Grampa for Creator/DCBlackLabel.
Set in a grim Gotham gripped by a wealth disparity, a young Batman fights crime, bringing to crooks the same violence they bring to the innocent. However, something new, something darker, has emerged. A weeping SerialKiller donned in black named Crytoon has made his way onto the scene. Meanwhile, a mysterious serial killer is carving a path of murder through the city. Batman must fight this new threat... as well as his inner darkness.
!!This comic has the following tropes:
* BrokenTears: One of the most obvious inversions from the Joker that Crytoon possesses is, instead of [[LaughingMad insane cackling]], he's constantly weeping.
* EyeScream: Batman incapacitates one of Crytoon's men by poking him in the eye.
* ToonPhysics: Crytoon is obsessed with the cartoon character of the same name, and he emulates the character's antics. For cartoon characters, what he does is relatively harmless. For real humans, it's fatal.
* StreisandEffect: Referenced by name by Nia when telling her boss how her plea for justice for the poor has taken off despite the original video being taken down.
