This week, we take a deeper look into the Creel family as Selina goes head-to-head with them for the first time! So far, I’ve been happy with Joelle Jones’ Catwoman. Three issues in, and we’re finally starting to see the story shape up. The narrative is a bit of a slow burn and as I…
Joelle Jones continues her run on Catwoman, and while there may be imposters, police, and a corrupt businesswoman on her tail, I’m not quite sure what story she’s trying to tell... Last month, Joelle Jones delivered one hell of a debut. No, there isn’t anything overtly fresh or original to her take on Selina Kyle…
I’m not a fan of dialogue covers, but I will say you should heed this cover’s warning… Read Batman #50 first. That, or make sure you know what happens in that issue, because it will help explain some things here. Also, there will be spoilers for Batman #50 in this review, so proceed with caution.…
It’s the wedding of the century: Batman and Catwoman are getting married. Almost eighty years in the making, the two lovebirds will finally tie the knot on July 4th... or will they? Time will tell, of course, as the nuptials play out in the supersized Batman #50, written by Tom King and illustrated by everyone…
It's been a big weekend for conventions, what with both Fan Expo Dallas and C2E2 going on concurrently. Possibly the biggest news to come out of either event, at least as of this time, is the announcement that Joëlle Jones will headline a new Catwoman title. Spinning directly out of Batman #50, the series will see…
I love politics. I openly admitted that last year when the primary debates were beginning, and my sentiment hasn’t changed too much since then. I read political magazines, try to keep myself glued to the news, and I follow quite a few political news podcasts. That being said, I hate this election. Between Donald Trump…
Spinning out of last month’s short story, “Night at the Museum,” Tieri continues the narrative he set in motion pertaining to the False Face Society, and the infamous faceless mask. I was pretty excited to see him build on this, because I really enjoyed the short story (although, I still wish the entire, oversized issue…
Catwoman reaches its 50th issue, and because of that, we’re graced with an extra-sized issue! This is also the conclusion to Tieri’s current story, so I was excited to see that he had some additional pages to wrap things up, because, quite frankly, he needed it… So imagine my disappointment when I discovered that the…
This is Tieri's third installment of Catwoman, and it's probably my least favorite issue of his to date. Since he's taken over, Catwoman's pace has been fast and furious, bringing a sleek energy to the book. This issue, however, feels like the creative process itself was rushed. The script reads as if it didn't receive…
Catwoman #48 “Run Like Hell” Part 2 Written by Frank Tieri Art by Inaki Miranda Colors by Eva de la Cruz Last month I gave Tieri’s debut an 8.5/10, which wasn’t received too well by a few people. I’ll agree that my score may have been a little inflated because I was expecting something worse…
Catwoman #47 "On the Run” Written by Frank Tieri Art by Inaki Miranda Colors by Eva De La Cruz Alright…. That potentially dreaded time has finally come. Valentine is gone, and we now have a new writer, a new artist, and a new direction… So… How was it? It was good! One of my biggest…
Catwoman #46 "Not Forgotten" Written by Genevieve Valentine Art by David Messina Colors by Lee Loughridge The dreaded day has come... This is the final issue of Valentine's amazing run on a book that has unfortunately been forgotten and neglected by many readers - a symptom that we can largely blame the previous creative team(s)…
Catwoman #45 "The Daughter of One Who Had No Fear Written by Genevieve Valentine Art by David Messina Colors by Lee Loughridge After reading this issue, all I want to do is throw a temper tantrum about Valentine leaving. I'm talking full-on screaming and kicking, while rolling around on the floor... Like a hungry, angry…
Catwoman #44 "Fire" Written by Genevieve Valentine Pencils by David Messina Inks by Gaetano Carlucci Colors by Lee Loughridge It's almost been a year since Valentine started her run on Catwoman, and every issue has built an intricate world featuring Selina's transition from master thief to the head of Gotham's underworld. Now that our first…
Catwoman #43 “Them That Bear It” Written by Genevieve Valentine Art by David Messina Colors by Lee Loughridge Well… you know what they say… “Ask and ye shall receive.” I hoped Valentine would let loose a little, and in this issue, she didn’t’ disappoint. As I’ve mentioned numerous times in my reviews of Catwoman, Valentine…
Catwoman #42 “Gathered from All Sides” Written by Genevieve Valentine Art by David Messina Colors by Lee Loughridge Alright, I want to jump right into this. I’m a fan of Valentine and what she’s done with this book. She’s spent a solid amount of time rebuilding the foundation of Selina, making the character interesting and…
Catwoman #41 “Caesar or Nothing” Part 1 Written by Genevieve Valentine Art by David Messina Colors by Lee Loughridge I’ve missed this book, and I’m glad to have it back from its two month vacation. As most of you know, I’m a huge fan of Valentine’s work on Catwoman, and I’ve praised her for writing…
Catwoman #40 “The Issue & End” Written by Genevieve Valentine Art by Garry Brown Colors by Lee Loughridge We’ve reached the end of what’s been, in my opinion, an excellent arc. I’ve described Valentine’s narrative as a “slow burn,” where she intertwines intricate plots and details, building suspense with every issue. So how well does…
Catwoman #39 “Better Than He Does Himself” Written by Genevieve Valentine Art by Garry Brown Colors by Lee Loughridge Before I get into this review, I want to call attention to this cover, and how simple, yet amazing it is! I’ve found that people either love or hate Jae Lee, and if he’s not causing…
Catwoman #38 "The Serpent" Written by Genevieve Valentine Art by Garry Brown I love that Catwoman has become the book that I can depend on for a quality story at the end of each month. I really can't describe how relieving and refreshing that feeling is, especially when considering that six months ago, that wasn't…
