The Gotham War: Batman vs. Catwoman Crossover

[Frontier]

Someone correct me if i'm wrong but, isn't this the third time that someone has gone to war over the control of Gotham? I mean it was first Bane then Joker right?

Also, why are CZ and TH ripping off a previous Marvel story line written by Slott? You know the one where Black Cat became a mob boss and pseudo evil but it was just plain ridiculous and awful no one in their right mind bought for a second? Or do they have Selina actually go and kill someone for crossing her? I mean if they won't let her and Bruce be together at least kill that ship off by making her actually do something he cannot forgive and we can all move one from it.

Scarecrow too I guess.

Selina has been the head of crime families before during Genevieve Valentine's New52 run, but she wasn't made "pseudo evil" for that. She reluctantly took control in an effort to try and reign in the overall violence that a gang war would cause.

Which I actually kind of liked.

What happened to Eiko and Selina's brother from that run? It made great use of Black Mask and Penguin.

Eiko's featured pretty prominently in the current Catwoman run.

Valentine's were the only New 52 era Catwoman comics I liked.

I read about Catwoman becoming a mob boss during Batman Eternal but I don't pick up Catwoman as a regular book so I missed that run.

It might be worth it to pick up the tpb collection if you can find it at a decent price.

All I can say is that I hope we get a Gotham War Zone anthology series out of this

Still bummed that the Flash One Minute War Special wasn't called One Minute War Zone.

It is an awesome book - really rich in character and theme, and the first half had really awesome art. Second half art wasn't quite as good, but still fun!

From what Zdarsky did with Catwoman in his latest issue of Batman, this is definitely aiming to kill that romance off for a long while. Oh well.

In fairness to Selina how was she supposed to know that Bruce had an alternate mental state that built his own kill self bot that went off because Alfred wasn’t around to stop it and it then shot him into the multiverse.

Like I can understand Selina’s complete disbelief at the insanity of Bruce’s life, an insanity that he’s pretty much responsible for making. Also kind of a major design fail on Failsafe/Zur en arrh if it’s not not able to tell when someone faked their death to start a new life, especially when Catwoman put the pieces together first.

Coming from the same writer who came up with Valmont and tried to spin that as serious, it doesn't surprise me.

I mean Selina should know he does crazy crap like going to Apokolips and other worlds and dimensions by now.

Yeah but usually that’s not the result of Bruce’s own actions.

Not to mention I could see Selina think that Bruce is currently blaming her for an ordeal he went through when she had no freaking clue.
