I love all the varying artistic interpretations with Catwoman -- like Batman, almost any style can work...

For me the Adam Hughes covers are the only really great thing about the Pfeifer run. And the Pete Woods' art on #44-52 was pretty spectacular. But, as for the rest of it - mneh.
But, I will say to Will Pfiefer's credit - his run doesn't suffer clearly as much as the current Nocenti run. His Catwoman is very captivating and well written. But, what his run does suffer from is the story plot-points... *WARNING-SPOILERS* I mean from the making Selina a mom, to the Incestual Baby-Daddy Drama, and then you have the Zatanna Mind Control, to the whole Black Mask being Murdered, Pfeifer just leaves much to be desired.
And as far as the David Lopez art, it's okay... His Selina isn't the same classy chic Selina from early in the run, and can we talk about the coloring? Brown Hair? Blue Eyes? A Blue Catwoman Costume? (I get that occasionally Selina's eyes are blue, but there are some odd color choices throughout his tenure on Catwoman). He also drew my least favorite version of the Cooke/Brubaker Costume (i.e. her boots). But, overall his art wasn't horrible.
So, overall - I would say try it if you want a read a continuation of the story that Brubaker laid out. But, just know it's not going to be nearly as groundbreaking.

More Selina in this trailer. Camren delivers.

Thanks! The Villains trailer looks great. I can't wait to see Camren's young Selina!
Anyone read todays issue? I decided this is my last issue until there is a new writer. I am really not enojoying it anymore and half of it doesn't make sense. How did Catwoman get that car to South Asia... where the hell did Rat Tail come from? Why did Gotham City Cops travel to South Asia to stop the race...??

It is a bit odd that she's in the "villains" trailer, yet she's on the "heroes" side of the poster.
And note how in the poster she's on the right with the good guys but up on fire escape, not exactly standing with them.
I think the ambiguity is perfect since Catwoman has (at least since Year One) been in between a villain who murders and a hero who always combats wrong.
Even when black suit Selina was the protector of the East End playing the good guy, she wasn't just a simple law enforcement hero: no killing people not in "the game," no drugs with kids and no stealing from East End folks were her rules. Sort of "law enforcement lite" in comparison to Batman's binary right and wrong approach. And even in the 90s, purple suit Catwoman who stole like crazy would occasionally have moral moments and do the right thing to help someone. And she never murdered (except Black Mask but that was very exceptional).
Anyway, I hope and think the Gotham producers have done their Selina/Catwoman homework. I can't wait to see!
