In defiance of Superman's war on crime, Catwoman is still in the burglary business. However, when she's visited by the Man of Steel, he's not out to arrest her but to put her on a very special assignment.

    If there was anyone to better portray the emotion to be felt from both sides, Selina was the best pick and did just that. Does make you question, for those who played the game, what she did to be arrested later on? Read Full Review

    While #17 doesn't have any moments that'll floor you or make you hold back manly tears, it still manages to serve as yet another enjoyable chapter in the series. Witnessing Selina hit Clark with a heavy dose of logic was an unexpected yet most welcome touch, and, despite one questionable panel, the conclusion is a short yet somber reaction to last issue's cliffhanger.I'm really hoping we'll get a chapter revolving primarily around Damian or Bruce. Placing a strong emphasis on how they're reacting to the tragedy has the potential to be an emotional hurricane, especially if they're forced to simultaneously deal with the greater dispute.

    Tom Taylor attempts to bring the focus to a small scale, drawing on the personal relationships these characters have all had with each other. After the devastation of last issue, he tries to further the emotional impact by playing up this story in issue 17. While it is possible that on some level Superman regrets his decisions, which has even been hinted at during this series, the events here feel misplaced. Yardin's pencils, as well, are incredibly inconsistent. As previously mentioned, he does bring some expression, but more often are there panels with strange distortions and odd facial features, most egregiously the panel of Bruce in rage. A second consecutive misfire for the juggernaut digital comic. Read Full Review
