DC Reveals First Look at Absolute Catwoman (And Her Costume Is Perfect)

by

It’s approaching the point where another memorable antagonist from Batman’s rogues gallery will step into the limelight in “Absolute Batman”. Readers have previously seen “Muscular Bane” cause trouble for Bruce Wayne within the pages of “Absolute Batman”, and so far we’ve merely glimpsed the Joker. The Absolute Universe is continually reshaping DC Comics’ collection of iconic characters, with one of the most significant transformations unfolding in Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta’s “Absolute Batman”. A fascinating turn of events has Bruce Wayne sharing a childhood friendship with many of his classic adversaries, including Selina Kyle. While she’s had a minor role in the series thus far, this autumn will bring her to the forefront as “Absolute Catwoman” takes center stage.

DC has announced its October lineup for the Absolute Universe series of comics, which includes Scott Snyder’s Absolute Batman #13 with artwork and a main cover by Nick Dragotta. On sale October 8th, Absolute Batman #13 depicts Batman’s last stand against Bane, who seeks to imprison him in Arkham forever. Following this epic battle, a fresh character emerges on Gotham’s scene. Additionally, there’s a significant unveiling of Absolute Catwoman, and Dragotta’s cover art showcases Selina Kyle adorning her all-black Catwoman attire.

This new suit is quite reminiscent of Catwoman’s previous ones, maintaining the classic all-black leather spandex from head to toe. Given that she’s a feline burglar, her disguise includes a towering helmet adorned with two cat ears at its peak. The suit also features what appears to be a tail, though it could equally represent her iconic whip. This larger-than-life appearance aligns with the style of Absolute Batman, who often portrays their characters as more than just ordinary individuals, as seen in the large capes, bulging muscles of Absolute Batman himself, the literal mask of Black Mask, and the muscular Swole Bane.

Spectators are certainly looking forward to the climactic clash between Batman and Bane, yet it’s crucial not to overlook Selina Kyle, aka Catwoman. In past recollections, she’s had romantic ties with Bruce Wayne, but in the present day, she’s kept her activities under wraps. It’ll be intriguing to learn more about her recent endeavors, and whether she might assume a more significant role in the upcoming narrative.

As a passionate film enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that an intriguing gathering is taking place among some formidable villains in the comic book universe titled “Absolute Evil #1″. This one-shot masterpiece is penned by the talented Al Ewing, with stunning art and a captivating cover graced by Giuseppe Camuncoli and Stefano Nesi.

Characters like Ra’s al Ghul, Veronica Cale, Hector Hammond, Elenore Thawne, and even the enigmatic Joker are no longer at odds. Instead, they’ve formed an alliance, a united front that poses a significant threat. However, a treacherous betrayal from within could potentially dismantle their carefully constructed plans.

In the coming months of the Absolute Universe’s second year, we can anticipate the debut of not just one, but two major characters who will undoubtedly alter the course of this fascinating universe. The identities of these game-changers are, as of now, shrouded in mystery. Stay tuned to uncover the secrets that lie ahead!
