Description

Coming off of the wedding of the century to Batman, Selina Kyle stars in an all-new solo series written and illustrated by Eisner Award nominee Joelle Jones! The wedding night's barely over, but Catwoman's back on the streets, this time to expose a copycat who's pulling heists around Gotham City. As Selina cracks the whip on her former criminal cohorts, she's attracting unwanted attention from one of Gotham's most dangerous groups. The mob? Nope. Try the GCPD. And as if the Bat-Bride didn't have enough problems, don't miss the debut of an all-new villain determined to make trouble for all nine of Selina's lives. Fresh off of her run on Batman with superstar writer Tom King, creator Joelle Jones writes and illustrates this dynamic new series. Collects issues #1-6.

Reviews

"Captur[es] that signature blend of danger and sex appeal that makes for great Catwoman stories." -IGN "Stunning to look at and engaging to read. It's a great start to a promising new series." -Comicosity "Joelle Jones' Catwoman wastes no time in setting up the new status quo for the character." -CBR "Joelle Jones writing and art are both fantastic." -Syfy Wire "As conceived by Jones (Lady Killer) and Fernando Blanco (Midnight and Apollo), Catwoman is sultry and morose; still reeling from her failed relationship with Batman, she's more human than cat. Insight into her past helps flesh her character out and explains the motivation behind some of her actions. This arc is timely considering recent interest in female superheroes' stories, and would be a good fit for any adult collection." -School Library Journal
