Catwoman is a long way from home, so the Roman crime bosses decide it's time to bring a little Gotham City to her...by hiring an unexpected super-villainess to take her out!

Art is spectacular. Story is still so-so.
I have to ask...does Jeph Loeb have a Catwoman fetish or something? I don't know that I've ever seen a character sexualized as much as Catwoman is in this story. A lot of characters get sexualized in comics, but it's not usually this obvious. Horny Riddler and his constant passes at Selina is growing old real fast.
The story is still engaging but the constant gratuity is getting to be a little much. I appreciate a gorgeous depiction of the female form which Sale does phenomenally but to constantly harp on it as if that's the only redeeming quality that the men in Catwoman's world appreciate is problematic and reductive. And I'm not even the biggest Catwoman fan. I personally feel like there are better characters to pair with Batman but to subject Selina to a constant of passes and innuendos in her own book is a let down. It's also not like we're getting any closer to solving this "mystery", just opening more doors for more questions.
