I try to be as open minded as possible, and even, or especially when I encounter something I don't like, I try to give it a fair chance, and understand why I don't like it if I still don't like it after giving it said chance. It was the case with post I Am Bane Batman series by Tom King, which I grew to dislike only more and more with every passing issue. Enter Batman/Catwoman, which made, to say the least, a very unfavourable opinion on me with its first two issues. And here I am - giving it the last chance to capture my attention and imagination, make me see something more in it, because as of now, I'm completely conscious about what I dislike about it.
All my good will was gone when Catwoman says "I became a cat. I met a bat". I shaked my head asking myself in disbelief why am I even exposing myself to this trash? But yet, I proceeded. I continued reading this comic, just to find some action in it. Yeah, that's new, isn't it? Action. Too bad it features more inarticulate meowing, growling and hissing, making me shiver in disgust and cringe, and rather comically oversexualized fight sequence, which whilst not bad, reminds me of the infamous panel from Heroes in Crisis featuring half naked Lois Lane being half naked for the sake of being half naked. 90's called, they want their porn influences back.
I'm done with this series, it's time I stop wasting any second more on it. I've seen too much already. Screw the bat. And the cat. And my life as well, because I could have read something half decent instead. more

The only thing I appreciate about this number is that I stopped the abuse of flashbacks that made me headache.
The art is flawless even though the way Helena was presented in that outfit makes her look very vulgar, please it seems the woman forgot to put her the pants along with the panties and came out half dressed, it would have been better if it was just the bat on her chest and her mask. or something worse was the rear. It reminded me of those movies where they dream that they are naked at school and everyone laughs. Nothing aesthetic.
As long as the story isn't of much interest here, it felt empty. This was definitely a series that I didn't think about or read until there were two immature and intolerant little people who attacked me because I didn't like it and no one can force me to like something that is not for me, that's why I promised to give my personal and impartial criticism .
In conclusion, it was a little better than the previous numbers since the abuse of the flash back and the insistence of the song was removed, but the story still does not reach me.
As long as history isn't of much interest here, she felt hollow. Definitely this was a series that I did not think or read until there were two immature and intolerant little people who attacked me because I did not like myself and nobody can force me to like something that is not for me, therefore I promised to give my personal criticism and impartial.
In conclusion, it was a little better than the previous numbers since the abuse of the flash back and the insistence of the song was withdrawn, but the story still does not catch up with me. more

I give it a 3 solely for Mann's art which is as great as ever, but the story was pure horseshit. Yes, the usual King fanboys will rate it with 10, 9.5 or 9 but don't believe that, they would rate it the same way if King would fill the book with "Bat", "Cat" and "Mreeeow", they're just brainwashed and want so badly to feel smart. And I've said this before, the title of the book is pure bait, Batman is barely in the book, this is not about him at all. Also while reading it I was wondering if King suffered an aneurysm or something because for several pages he kept having Selina just "mrrow"-ing. But like I said, for some people, that's just great writing lol. :))

The only thing about this issue I really enjoyed was the idea of Joker locking himself in a safe and waiting around for Catwoman. That's an effective idea and an effective image. But dude. The dialogue throughout this issue is abysmal. I don't understand why Tom King persists on writing the Batfamily like he does. Other characters don't always talk this way. Unfortunately, they're not the protagonists. Also, holy shit some of the art is just begging for a Tumblr post decrying it. Selina's back has been broken for decades. But ultimately, while the art took me out of the story at points and distracted me (What else would distract me? The plot?), I really think the biggest problem is the three timelines thing. Last issue worked better because there was a throughline, while this issue was just... More story. It really is a shame. more

It's really hard to enjoy this. I usually enjoy Mann's art very much but I see he was once again horny when making this art. Happens to the best of us and I would let it slide if that was my only problem with this issue.
But it's hard to say anything good about this. I really don't get what the narrative is that King is trying to write. We have, what, 3 stories going on and I honestly can't remember anything else except the future parts. Nor do I get what is going on in them.
And I don't get what is the hook King should throw at us to keep coming back. I mean, nothing really happens here. Why should I be interested in the 4th issue now?

Tom King is the best writer (and the best Batman writer) in years. I can’t get enough. This is why I read superhero comics.

Smart narrative about morality and revenge that cohesively weaves itself through multiple timelines without missing a beat. If you want a story that holds your hand and treats you like an idiot, I'm sure there are other books out there.

Many of the User who reviews on this site is troller they make id just to rate 1,2or 3 ( if you don't believe just check the overall rating of User who are giving 1,2 or saying Fuck this writer, you would know what I mean).
User review does not mean anything here. critics Review is much more reliable.

Tom King continues to prove he doesn't grasp Batman at all.

The art is amazing and the story is a great deeper look into the plausible future with a Kyle and Wayne match but a book where phantasm is in it is perfect.

Just a boring comic book. I'm happy that Tom King is almost done writing any Batman book. He goes out with a the of equivalent of a silent fart in church.
