Catwoman: Lonely City

Product Information

The Last God— The first book, taking place 30 years after a band of heroes had supposedly killed the last living god, Mol Uhltep, an eldritch creature who's kind once plagued and ravaged the lands. However, it would seem the legends lie as the supposedly dead Mol Uhltep makes a chilling return, bent on gruesome revenge. Written by Phillip Kennedy Johnson and drawn by Riccardo Federci and Sunny Gho with Dean White. It also helps that Chiang’s artwork is just as fun as the story, and it’s even partnered with some stunning colors. He has some cool and cute character designs, and he does great with the thrill scenes, and his tone captures the drama and emotion of the story perfectly. It’s just great work from start to finish. Catwoman made her first Silver Age appearance in Superman's Girl Friend, Lois Lane #70-71 (November–December 1966); afterward, she continued to make appearances across the various Batman comics. 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.

Catwoman is the alter ego of Selina Kyle, a Gotham City burglar who usually wears a skintight bodysuit and uses a bullwhip for a weapon. She was originally characterized as a supervillain and adversary of Batman, but has been featured in an eponymous series since the 1990s that portrays her as an antiheroine, often with a utilitarian moral philosophy. The character thrived in her earliest appearances, but she took an extended hiatus from September 1954 to November 1966 due to the developing Comics Code Authority in 1954. These issues involved the rules regarding the development and portrayal of female characters that were in violation of the Comics Code, a code which is no longer in use. In the comics, Holly Robinson and Eiko Hasigawa have both adopted the Catwoman identity, apart from Selina Kyle. [5] [6] 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. The Last God: Songs of Lost Children— One shot showing the journey of Queen Cyanthe from innocent girl to warrior. Batman: Reptilian— Batman used to strike fear into the hearts of his enemies but a new and mysterious savage monster is stalking Gotham's streets and it’s after the city’s infamous villains. Written by Garth Ennis and art by Liam Sharp. Heart of Hush Catwoman (vol. 3) #48, with art by Adam Hughes. Catwoman's costume and style transitioned to a spy aesthetic in the 2000s.

DC Black Label provides examples of:

Catwoman (vol. 2) #69 provides details about Selina's childhood and neglects Maggie's existence. Maria Kyle is a distant parent who preferred to spend her time with cats, and commits suicide when Selina is very young. Her alcoholic father, Brian, is cold to Selina for resembling her mother, whom he resents for dying, and eventually drinks himself to death. To survive, Selina takes to the streets for a time before getting caught and sent first to an orphanage, then juvenile detention center, [20] "where Selina began to see how hard the world could really be". [21] Maggie's fate at this point in the timeline is not alluded to. However, when Ed Brubaker reintroduces her into the comic, he implies that Maggie may have directly entered an orphanage and promptly been adopted.
