7 Reasons why New 52 Catwoman Kicks Ass - A woman's perspective

This is a guest article submitted by Shayla Perreault originally published at StashMyComics.com/blog

I’m not an expert or hard core comics fan (I’m only peripherally interested in superheros). My husband has been dipping his toe in this New 52 relaunch thingy and I’ve occasionally tried a book or two. So when he brought home Catwoman #1 I was curious. She is such an icon that I feel an affinity for the character. Reportedly many fans are upset with her portrayal in the new 52. However, I’m all for it and will keep reading the series. Here are 7 reasons why.

1. The art. Movement, action chaos – I can see speed, facial expressions, variety of body types, consistency and a memorable look for Selena’s face.

2. Conceptual contrast. Should we not allow strong characters their moments of vulnerability? I’m intrigued by a character that can confront a mob boss in his own element, get away alive all the while meting out a brutal ass whoopin’ and then have moments of insecurity around those who know her best.

3. Foreshadowing. Lola confronts Catwoman with: “Someone just tried to kill you, Selena. You’re pretty far from fine.” This raises questions for me. In what way is she “far from fine”? Some of this vulnerability ignites the scene with Batman, but there must be more to come. I’m curious to find out how this will follow.

4. Characterization. While she is written with vulnerability, I don’t believe the author portrayed her as helplessly messed up. She has her redeeming qualities and strengths. I feel I can trust him not to trash this icon.

5. Believable sexual themes. I agree that the last scene was aggressive and felt it was in character. There was no nudity and the bared body parts were kept to a minimum so I didn’t feel it was exploitative but a natural part of the plot. Does 20 years of sexual tension seem healthy to you if it is never consummated?* If so, perhaps you’d prefer sitcoms such as “Who’s the Boss” or “The Nanny”. Wait… those characters had sex and it wasn’t dismissed as a ratings gimmick.

6. Relationships. That panel where Batman kisses Catwoman’s neck revealed complex layers to their relationship. There was a level of tenderness. It’s not a likely gesture during a first time casual hook up but more one of an already established level of familiarity.

While I don’t expect the Bat and the Cat to move in together and become “a couple”, I’m curious as to what they mean to each other. They say women are more interested in character development while men prefer plotting. I don’t know if that’s true in general, but I do know it’s the case for me. This issue has given me plenty to wonder about in regards to characters.

7. Diversity. As a woman I might take offense to DC portraying all their female characters with the same body type, but Supergirl and Wonder Woman have different physiques. Even within this very comic, the artist draws the female form in a variety of ways. Lola – a retired show girl – was drawn with an aging body but she must have been invisible to most critics. Catwoman’s body is in character and I think it would be unreasonable to insist that a woman not have curves. There is no such thing as one acceptable body type and obsessing is probably what causes body image problems.

To everyone their opinion but for my money, Judd Winnick and Guillem March’s Catwoman is a great comic. One that won over at least one woman. Congrats DC, I’m in!

*By the way, Those who interpreted Batman as prematurely ejaculating in the last scene, are perhaps reading into it something that isn’t there because of their personal concern about this problem? Hmmm?

My quick recap of week 1 of the DCnU



Action Comics #1 8.0
-Very fun/fresh look at Superman's first showings... although a little confused with some of the flow of the story. In typical Morrison fashion, he'll probably reveal a bunch of stuff down the road that shouldn't really have been kept from the reader at all.

Animal Man #1 9.5
-Wow, what a great start! Lemire knows how to build a story, albeit a little slowly.

Batgirl #1 6.5
-Looking back through the book, I feel like this story should have grabbed me more... Good, but missing something...

Batwing 7.5
-Surprisingly solid start for a character I don't really care about.... yet?

Detective Comics #1 7.5
-Another surprise, mostly because Tony Daniel has been pretty terrible of his Batman run. Curious where this is going to go.

Green Arrow #1 4.0
-As much as I want to care about G.A., I don't... even with Jurgens and Perez drawing him. Completely indifferent.

Hawk & Dove #1 2.5
-... all around just not very good. Feels like a cookie cutter cut-out of how to write a first issue.

Justice League #1 8.0
-Nice "introduction" to what is going to be an introduction story. Nothing epic but I think it works because of it.

Justice League International 8.0
-What I expected from Jurgens. A Little out-of-date as far as story telling goes but I can always expect something fun from him!

Men of War #1 6.0
-Some potential here but not what I'd call a great start.

O.M.A.C. #1 8.0
-Probably one of the books I had the most mixed expectations for. On one hand, one of my favorites, Keith Giffen is co-writing and drawing, on the other, Dan DiDio is also writing and he's one of the worse writers I've had to experience in the last little while. TOTAL KIRBY WORSHIP!!!! (Un)Fortunately, the amazing art comes with good but dated writing. One to keep an "eye" on!

Static Shock #1 5.0
-Always happy to see Scott McDaniel on a book and while it was well put together enough, it never grabbed me.

Stormwatch #1 8.5
-Very happy to see these characters back in use! Solid start, always a fan of Cornell, who can come up with some of the most original stories out there!

Swamp Thing #1 9.0
-So very excited to see him back in the DCU (would have been fine with Vertigo or anywhere really). Paquette is a master of his craft and if it were only for him, I might still get this book. Snyder's story starts a little slow but it seems like it could be a creepy good time!



Well, there you have it, Week #1 (and 0) of the DCnU. A few surprises, with some of the strongest stuff coming from old Vertigo characters being given a new lease on life (in the DCU).

Updated VIP Discount!


With more and more people signing up for books and many inching closer to that coveted VIP discount (getting 40 or more monthly titles), I've decided to update the discount a bit!

The regular discount of 15% off new titles will remain the same. All you need is a regular monthly subsciption and any new single issues you buy, you get 15%.

The VIP discount, on the other hand, will provide those who qualify with a 20% store wide discount! (exceptions occuring on previously disounted items)

If you have any further questions about how to qualify or want to know how many titles you're getting, feel free to email me!
