Concept art from an abandoned Batman game has surfaced in the portfolio of a graphic artist. According to graphic artist Julie Farrell, the game was pitched to THQ with the title "Gotham By Gaslight" and featured a steampunk art style.

"This was a game I was really looking forward to working on," Farrell writes. "Unfortunately it was just a pitch. I had a blast creating the menus for this game, as steampunk is really quite unique, interesting and something I love to design. I created the bat logo from scratch and used a variety of different clockwork pieces and other metal pieces to construct it."

A few of Farrell's logo and menu designs are below. For the full gallery of images, visit Farrell's portfolio.

Update: Note that the graphic artist edited her portfolio after the time this article was published, revealing the game to be a former pitch to THQ, not a canceled project. The story has been updated to reflect that.
