Tini Howard in the last 3 issues has expertly displayed how a piece of an individual's identity can complicate a whole system amongst the human terrain. Finally, DC comics has a winner after for so long has been trying to unlock in its push for inclusivity. We now have a LGBTQ related story, that's not just about identity diversity! Read Full Review

An old friend returns after a long time away, as Selina Kyle's world continues to get deadlier when Black Mask and the crime families make their next move. Catwoman's new creative team continues to create one of the most beautiful, fun, and unique books around keeping the series at the top as one of the best books DC Comics is publishing.

If you're still reeling from Zo Kravitz's stellar performance as Catwoman, this series by Tini Howard and Nico Leon is a perfect entryway into the comic version of the character. Read Full Review

Catwoman #41 is another special issue from Tini Howard and Nico Leon.  Howard is working a bunch of different angles here, and they come together nicely in this issue which also looks spectacular.  Highly Recommended! Read Full Review

I was a little critical of this run right at the start for jettisoning the entire supporting cast Ram V and Joelle Jones set up in the previous runs, but Howard is slowly coming into her own. Read Full Review

Catwoman #41 is a great continuation of a story that further separates her from Batman, as she fully takes on the anti-hero role, using brutal efficiency and using methods Batman would never use to rid Gotham of the crime lords. It's a side of Catwoman I hope we get to see for a long time. Read Full Review

It may lack some of the stylish punch of the preceding issue, but Catwoman #41 Continues to show Howards unique perspective on the character, which continues to be really appealing. The story in question isnt altogether different from many other Catwoman stories that have made it to the page over recent years. However, the author is working with familiar details in a way that makes them feel unique and fresh. Its a whole new perspective on the classic. Read Full Review

It's incredibly hard to tell moral stories like these without coming over all heavy-handed or preachy, particularly in another male-dominated environment that's only starting to become sympathetic now to the appearance of LGBTQ+ people and women in their community. It takes a well-handled story by a strong creative team to tell something like this, and tell it well. Read Full Review

This is easily the Catwoman issue that best showcases the potential of the series as a whole, and I love it. Read Full Review

Catwoman #41 solidifies my hope for Tini Howard's and Nico Leon's run on the character. While their first issue together had some growing pains, Howard has a unique voice for Selina that feels true to the character, while managing a growing cast of supporting characters to great effect. The storyline doesn't do much to differentiate itself from other runs, but Selina's unrelenting nature to protect those in need gives the book an emotional core to drive the story through. For those still around, next month's issue is poised to bring this opening arc to a strong conclusion. Read Full Review

Catwoman #41 has good pieces, but the puzzle doesn't quite come together. The problem starts with the frenetic start/stop scenes, the lack of closure in conversations, and the somewhat jarring digital art mixing in with more conventional-looking pieces. Read Full Review

Howard and Leon continue to provide an occasionally competent but still very frustrating depiction of a Catwoman who we are assured is "focused" but continually demonstrates her lack of focus in the multiple failures she racks up. Read Full Review

Howard's first arc on Catwoman continues to be intriguing. I think Leon's art fits very well with Howard's current storyline. I liked Onyx being used here, and I think she can be a good supporting character for this series. In a similar fashion to what I said about Valmont in my review of the previous issue, I'm not 100% sure how I feel about Dario yet, either. I do have sympathy for what he's going through and I think he has potential to become a likable character, but it's not quite there yet, for me.

This is a solid issue, but I think it was a little overwritten, which can be said for a lot of Tini Howard's work. However, I do like the deliberate pacing and the character work. It's a fine line between deliberate and slog, and Howard errs on the positive side of that.
