Can somebody please tell me about this piece? I own The Long Halloween and Dark Victory -- love them both. I found out Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale did this, which is apparently a tie-in with those two graphic novels, specifically Dark Victory because Catwoman leaves for Rome during it.

Is it any good? Is it worth tracking down and buying? Will I be disappointed by it?

Thanks.
 
I rather liked it. It takes place kinda simultaneous to Dark Victory (if I'm remembering correctly...it's been a while since I read it.) The art is good - as always - and it is, I thought, one of the better Catwoman stories out there. So it that's what you're looking for, a good Catwoman tale, then no you won't be disappointed. :cwink:
 
I really love it, and what's even better is that it features The Riddler a lot, and I really love the way he is portrayed here. Pick it up!
 
I really liked it as well. I think it's a great in between book company to the Long Halloween and Dark Victory.
 
Grrrreat piece of work
 
Love it. The interaction between Catwoman and Riddler alone is worth the money.
 
They could use it Batman III as a reference if they use the feline fatale and the riddler
 
Story is okay but the art is great. Great little book for like $10.

Yeah it's worth getting. If you're in two minds because you're not a big Catwoman fan, there are plenty of other Bat villains turning up during the storyline, including Joker, Riddler and the Cheetah (from Wonder Woman). It's a good enough story to keep you interested all the way through and I'd recommend checking it out.
 
it's a Jeff Loeb book :o. but true it is probably my favorite of his Batman work

You like the Riddler portrayed as a horny, leprechaun-resembling, and incoherant dumbass? :huh: For God's sake, Loeb's a fan of Rob Liefeld, doesn't that tell you enough about that man?

That being said, I like the book, but it's nothing special. It added nothing significant to the Batman mythos...it was just "there."

Tim Sale was at his peak here though. The art was epic!
 
Just got it. I really really enjoyed it. I think Riddler was pretty awesome and one of his better stories. Like Hush
where he is manipulating everything
however not like hush in that he is a little wuss. However it was a fun quick story to read

This riddler does remind me of Keyser Soze in a way
