Howard and Williams getting more DC work, wish they’d take their “talents” back to Marvel.
NINE LIVES PART TWO. Somewhere in one of the world's most beautiful cities, a dance to the death is taking place. The setting? An accursed theater where no matter the play in question, the stakes are life and death, with a prize worth more than its weight in gold. And at the heart of it all stalks the devilishly deviant Flamingo and his latest costar--Catwoman! Can Selina Kyle glide her way through the performance of her lifetime, or will it be curtains for the amoral alley cat?!
Catwoman #60 is the tone-setter for this arc and what's to follow. While there's the ongoing mystery about her fate, we get an individual, stand-alone, punchy issue that she's in charge of. It feels like this creative team can truly do anything. Read Full Review
Overall, this is a tense and pulpy issue with a fun last-second twist that keeps the format from getting stale, but Flamingo is a villain I never found all that interesting, similar to Pyg. Read Full Review
This Catwoman arc is shaping up well with each issue offering up a complete story, strong art, and a fun gimmick in Selina's nine lives. While there are still some negatives here, they don't significantly detract from the story and, as an entertaining diversion, this series is delivering. Recommended! Read Full Review
This story is a confusing romp that has not decided if it is a personal revenge story or just an elaborate heist. If it is a heist, it failed, if it a revenge story, it may have failed again. The art was fantastic though. Read Full Review
The Nine Lives arc continues to be a fascinating beast, with an increasingly clever concept getting mired by some chunky storytelling tactics. Read Full Review
An entirely OK issue that really makes you wonder if the writer actually knows much about deadly injections. Even if a deadly injection misses a major artery it can still be fatal but WHATEVER this is comics and small details like that should be brushed to the side (probably).
Eduardo Flamingo is a gross villain from the best days of Morrison's writing for DC, and it's good to see him back. Although why Selina would want to work with him is questionable, in the end, all she really wants is to steal an Idol of Bacchus. The idol being in the hands of someone disgustingly wealth makes sense and he hosts bloody stageplays to make sacrifices to the idol. The story is quick and to the point. Unfortunately, Flamingo is something of a fo more
I'm just not the biggest fan of this storyline, unfortunately. I think it has an interesting concept, but the execution of it leaves a bit to be desired, unfortunately. It doesn't help that the logic of Selina suddenly working with Flamingo wasn't really clear to me. Maybe I missed something there, but I just wish this was coming together better.
Wretched narration. Crazy that this writer is being given more work, much less the GCS.
Laugh with me! Laugh with me!
This dumpsterfire has got to the point its so bad its good. Catwoman has fully transcended to a clown (literally and figuratively at some points in this story). She has no common sense, no skill, a full on bumbling stooge. Tini shows she must have slept through highschool and still passed as she don't know that injecting chemical cleaner like drano into your neck would kill you. She thinks it just knocks you out if it doesnt hit a vain. Hint: You would almost certainly die, it would dissolve the surrounding vains in your neck and you would bleed out/internally hemorrhage quickly.
Also Catwoman working with a cannibal clown with no logic is amazingly terrible. This series is now so bad its great. more
I do feel rather mean-spirited leaving consistently bad reviews for this series, but I cannot get over how much of a poor writer Tini Howard is. Catwoman is my favorite character - it was really a revelation to read her Volume III run where she was complicated, competent and creative, and it was so much fun to read her Volume II run where she was FUN and smart and independent, to say nothing of her portrayal in adaptation. It hurts A LOT to consistently have to endure Howard's current take on this character, who Howard thinks is a dumb, shallow, STUPID, romantically obsessed immature dumb-dumb cat chick, who talks in banal purple prose. Also, why is Selina killing people in this?
The recent announcement that Howard will get to dr more
