Catwoman # 56
DC COMICS
WRITER: Will Pfeifer
ARTISTS: David Lopez, Alvaro Lopez
COVER: Adam Hughes

Selina trains her replacement while old foes, including the demented Film Freak, seek to track her down. The story has some character pieces and gives us some intriguing villains but it also gets over-complicated and this slows down the action. It is as though the writer thought he was writing a weekly TV show and not a monthly comic book where the audiene can lose interest in betweeen issues. For example, there is suppose to be a big mystery over the identity of the father of Catwoman's child but this is hardly played up. The art is detailed and well-laid out but is also rather sterile. It gives us perhaps the least-sexy Catwoman in recent memory.
