NINE LIVES PART FOUR Catwoman has completed three of her impossible heists, but her nine lives are running out faster than she thought! Little does she know, someone with a particular use for disposable lives has been paying attention to her new mission--and that someone is none other than AMANDA WALLER! Welcome to the Suicide Squad, Selina Kyle--hope you survive the experience!
This is an improvement from the last issue, which I think was just there to draw radiation poisoning. This issue advances the narrative a little, but it involves the Suicide Squad, leading to a fun, team-based adventure! Read Full Review
"Nine Lives" continues to be an exciting arc with it almost serving as an anthology to some of DC's darkest corners being explored with an exciting character who is creating her own history. Catwoman has been developing into a fun series with a lot to say for readers who can read between the lines. Read Full Review
What ensues is a high-intensity chase with some surprising magical twists, as Selina's journey to becoming an odd cosmic hero maybe with some common DNA with her Burtonverse version continues apace. However, it suffers from one major issuethis is very much the current version of Waller, without even the slightest sense of honor, which leads to some dark turns towards the very end.

Once again, this "Nine Lives" arc appears to be brimming with promise and meeting a fair amount of it. Read Full Review
Catwoman #62 brings us a heist story that's vastly different from those that came before it. The greatest thief in DC Comics has such range, and when handled by a creative team this strong, the stories could go anywhere! I'm eager to see if she spends her remaining lives in vain, and if there's going to be anything other than the cosmic tug-of-war that unites these intriguing stories. Read Full Review
I absolutely do not recommend this issue and I'm shocked that we could go from such a strong story last month to this. The only explanation I can give is that this issue may have been rushed but that's no excuse for how sloppy everything here feels. At least each issue of this arc is a standalone complete story, so next month may bring something better to the table. Well, let's hope. Read Full Review
We're back down a bit in terms of overall quality, unfortunately. I still don't hate this others like others seem to, but it's not my favorite book out there. I did like the idea of Catwoman joining a Suicide Squad mission and I think it was fun enough here, but I also think this issue left a bit to be desired.
Tini Howard's run can't end soon enough.
