Gotham City Sirens #1

Gotham City Sirens #1 is a confusing way to kick off an issue. More than once I went back to the cover to make sure I was actually reading the first issue of a new comic as we seem thrown haphazardly into a series of events writer Leah Williams assumes we’ll understand. We get the hunting of White Rabbit (but not Jaina Hudson who Catwoman catches up to later) by a group of rodeo enthusiasts. Why any of this is happening, why Catwoman went looking for her, or how any of this fits into other events of the issues is (like everything else) clear as mud.

Batman: Caped Crusader - Kiss of the Catwoman

Of all the episodes of Batman: Caped Crusader, “Kiss of the Catwoman” is the closest it gets to Batman: The Animated Series and at times even Batman: The Brave and The Bold (given out title character’s classic costume and posturing). The episode introduces Selina Kyle (Christina Ricci) as a socialite whose family fortune isn’t what it used to be. Inspired by Batman (Hamish Linklater), Selina creates a costume of her own and commits a series of burglaries around Gotham City both for the needed income and for the thrill.

The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #3

When you give me Batman in the best design of his costume and Catwoman in the best design of her costume, you have my attention. Dario Brizuela’s art in The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #3 just makes me smile, and Ivan Cohen’s story is quite enjoyable as well playing on long-running Batman and Catwoman relationship that starts with someone impersonating Catwoman in a series of crimes. Taking Batman’s word that Catwoman is innocent, Mystery, Inc. set out to find the true criminal.

Catwoman #62

Catwoman #62 continues the “Nine Lives” storyline in which writer Tini Howard keeps finding ways to kill off Catwoman and bring her back for more. My real interest in the comic isn’t in the story itself, although Catwoman fulfilling an old debt by agreeing to work a single case for Amanda Waller‘s Suicide Squad is an interesting set-up, but the number of characters with ties to the Secret Six including both Black Alice and Jeannette who are part of Catwoman’s team in stealing an artifact from Black Adam.

Harley Quinn: Black + White + Redder #6

Harley Quinn: Black + White + Redder #6 provides our final three tales of Harley Quinn‘s wacky adventures in black and white (and red). We get Harley helping the Bat-Family and also breaking the fourth wall to talk to the reader discussing her various incarnations over the years and present motivations in a very Deadpool-like “Harleys All the Way Down” before stopping the crazy plot by Dr. De-Extinquisher King whose giant robotic Dodo, with Nightwing and dynamite strapped to it, is running wild over Gotham City.
