Love the call back to the winnick days of catwoman in eternal today, hope she kicks bones ass next week.
Books I'm reading: Batman Eternal, Red Hood, Black Widow, Elektra, Loki Agent of Asgard, Green Arrow, Wonder Woman, Action Comics, Catwoman.........
I've always loved the Catwoman character, great femme fatale, antihero/villain, and love interest. So I liked that (despite that whole dominatrix thing) how she was inspired by Batman in Year One, and while it's outside comics I really like how Gotham had her witness the Wayne murders. Just seems to connect Selina and Bruce that much more.
It's a bad move on DC's part. NOTHING is gained by her NOT knowing. Actually, it just makes her look like a clueless idiot if she cannot recognize that it's Bruce freaking Wayne when he's missing half his mask/standing right in front of her.
I liked that part actually. Luthor knowing Batman's true identity is bad enough. The entire Justice League is COMPROMISED because of this. No need for another enemy to know this vital information that can destroy the Justice League and therefore the entire world. Catwoman is an enemy combatant and she cannot be underestimated like Batman underestimated Luthor.
Catwoman did originally work it out in the new 52 after kissing Bruce and batman. It was in the Guillem March pages from an early issue that weren't used, editorial decided to go another way.

So, Catwoman's turning point in Eternal. I was expecting something a bit more ... weighty. Valentine better deliver otherwise I'm going to think nobody in DC can write this character at all.
I've been rereading some Silver Age Catwoman stories, and man is her original costume underrated.
If Valentine and Brown wanted to, I think they could reinstate it. It's totally something I could see Calabrese!Selena wearing. I'd love a modern interpretation!
Batgirl - ...BOP - Batman - 'Tec - Nightwing - Supergirl - Titans - Wonder Woman
I could see some dress Catpin wears being based off the old costume.
