Catwoman

Joëlle Jones

Book - 2019

"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."--

Review by Booklist Review

Following the events of Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle's failed wedding in Tom King's Batman series, Jones picks up with Selina (aka Catwoman) trying to move on in a new town. However, ruthless Raina Creel, the governor's wife (and true ruler), has more devious plans for Catwoman. Along with being a fast-paced, action-packed superhero comic, this series has a hardboiled fiction feel; the crime-ridden and corrupt town of Villa Hermosa, and its equally corrupt inhabitants, contribute to the gritty tone of the story. Selina continues to straddle the line between good and evil, protecting her own interests above those of others. The dark illustrations are detailed, with particular care taken with the backgrounds and characters' expressions. Catwoman's acrobatics are mostly easy to follow, though the panels don't always follow a typical layout. Obviously fans of the Batman comics will be eager to read this, but also recommend this series to readers looking for a strong and independent female character who proves she doesn't need a man to hold her up.--Suzanne Temple Copyright 2019 Booklist
