Catwoman solo series Catwoman, painted by Joe DeVito over pencil art by the titular character's series artist Jim Balent. Balent penciled Catwoman for several years and defined the visuals of the character for a long period. Stellar and cinematic in every single context, from the biggest brawl between superpowered characters to the smallest heartfelt conversation between characters…This book is a masterpiece in every sense of the word…”— Comicbook.com Batman vs. Bigby!

Batman: Last Knight on Earth— Billed as "the last Batman story ever told", Batman wakes up in post-apocalyptic tale where the villains have won. Written by Scott Snyder and drawn by Greg Capullo.Along the way, to pad out this unnecessarily overlong story, Selina steals a Green Lantern ring for no reason, one of the (way too many) supporting characters gets a prototype Halo-esque cat helmet that goes nowhere, and there’s a whole song and dance about stealing Clayface’s DNA from Arkham so Jason Blood can use it in one scene to pretend to be the new commissioner, even though it’s for just two Batcops and Selina and co. could easily deal with them by themselves rather than try to convince them with a disguise - which doesn’t even work anyway so it’s a waste of time! In the second volume of the Batman: Earth One graphic novel series, Selena Kyle appears and helps Batman tending his wounds after chasing the Riddler, pretending to be a single mother who lives in the apartment building where he was injured. Batman later discovers that she is neither the apartment's tenant or a mother, but a burglar who was robbing the building at the time. Two 1990s prose books feature Catwoman: The Further Adventures of Batman: Volume 3 featuring Catwoman, [62] a short story anthology with stories written by various authors, and Catwoman: Tiger Hunt, a novel. [63] Both books feature a Batman: Year One-influenced Catwoman who wears a gray cat costume and was once a prostitute. To pull off the job she enlists the aid of a few familiar faces from Batman’s past, including Killer Croc, the Penguin and Barbara Gordon, who is now running against Harvey Dent in the upcoming mayoral election.

Catwoman, in her first appearance, wore no costume or disguise at all. It was not until her next appearance that she donned a mask, which was a theatrically face-covering cat-mask that had the appearance of a real cat, rather than a more stylized face mask seen in her later incarnations. Later, she wore a dress with a hood that came with ears, and still later, a catsuit with attached boots and either a domino or glasses-mask. In Howard Chaykin's Thrillkiller, Selina Kyle is a stripper in a cat-themed strip club. She acts as an informant for GCPD detective Bruce Wayne. [73] Dark Allegiances Frankenhoff, Brent (2011).

ISBN 978-1-4402-2988-6.Rogues— Ten years into retirement The Rogues reunite for One Last Job that takes them to Gorilla City. Written by Joshua Williamson and drawn by Leomacs. The Last God: Songs of Lost Children— One shot showing the journey of Queen Cyanthe from innocent girl to warrior. On the day of their wedding, Selina decides to call off the wedding as she realises that marrying Bruce would ultimately take away what makes him Batman. This is later revealed to be due to the manipulations of Holly under the instructions of Bane as to finally break Batman of both spirit and will. [46] Subsequently, Selina leaves Gotham and starts a new life in the city of Villa Hermosa, California ( Catwoman (vol. 5) #1). She faces opposition from the power-hungry Creel family who run Villa Hermosa, specifically First Lady Raina Creel.

Since her first comic book appearance in 1940, Catwoman has been a staple of Batman lore. Equal parts hero, villain and love interest to the Dark Knight, over the years Selina Kyle has evolved as a character, becoming more than just a counterpart to Batman and really standing on her own as a fully realized and key part of the DC universe. It was a nice wrap up to Batman era Gotham. I would give it a 5 star, but Cliff Chiang dived into some philosopical subjects that he doesn't understand and he was silly so i break 1 star. I don't want to talk about those philosopical subjects... ''Don't tell the truth to someone who doesn't deserve it'' Mark Twain. I listen to Mark Twain's advise and my lips are sealed. I experinced this stuation from the first hand anyway and faced the unpleasent consicuinces so i don't want to talk about the subject. Just you know that Mark Twain's words are very wise. This does come at the cost of Poison Ivy though, who uses her powers to bring down the Batcave around herself and many of Two-Face's soldiers. Although she dies, a tree is seen growing out of the ruins of Wayne Manor, implying she lives on in a new form. These minor beats showcase that Gotham's villains do possess the potential to change and grow as people -- with even Two-Face's collapse being portrayed as a tragic development rather than an inevitable act. It speaks to Batman's ethos of trying to capture and rehabilitate villains -- with Catwoman, Ivy, and the already dead Killer Croc proving they can become heroes. Prior to the New 52 line-wide revision and relaunch of DC Comics superhero titles and characters, Selina had a relationship with Slam Bradley Jr., and she named him as the father of her daughter Helena. However, the father may still have been Bruce Wayne. In Alan Grant's Batman: Shadow of the Bat Annual #2, Vikki Vale, a reporter for Wayne Media, is Catwoman. She is hired by Anarky to steal information, but she gets caught and is tortured by Jonathan Crane, whom she calls a "demented scarecrow".During the Silver Age, Catwoman, like most Batman villains, used a variety of themed weapons, vehicles, and equipment, such as a custom cat-themed car called the "Cat-illac". This usage also appeared in the 1960s Batman television series. In her Post- Crisis appearances, Catwoman's favored weapon is a whip. She wields both a standard bullwhip and a cat o' nine tails with expert proficiency. She uses the whip because it is a weapon that the user must be trained to use, and therefore it can not be taken from her and used against her in a confrontation. She can also be seen using a pistol against people if her whip is taken from her. Catwoman uses caltrops as an anti-personnel weapon and bolas to entangle opponents at a distance. Nonsense - so much nonsense - aside, the comic is really boring to read. I not only never knew what was happening or why, I just didn’t care. It goes on and on and never accomplishes anything or shows you anything that even remotely entertains. Arvedon, Jon (February 17, 2021).
