A “local daily newspaper” (OK, we admit, it’s the Daily Herald) reports that Gotham is coming to Waukegan. While some exterior shots for the upcoming Batman prequel will be shot downtown starting July 31, a chunk of the movie will also be shot on the Amstutz Expressway in Waukeegan. Anything north of Evanston is Wisconsin to us, so we’ve never been on the Amstutz Expressway (indeed, we’ve never even heard of it). But what we especially like about this particular article is that the reporter was kind enough to interview Waukeegan’s own Comic Book Guy, who would “really like to get a look at that Batmobile.”
