Catwoman emerges from hiding and we get to see the reaction of her various friends who thought she was dead. It is nice to know how highly they think of her. Just don't expect any excitement in this issue. What may be of interest is that Batman and Catwoman finally go out on a date and reveal a lot about how they feel towards one another. Batman hasn't been this open to a woman in years and to see him acting like this is almost as shocking as any violent fight scene. We also get to see more of poor sad Slam Bradley, a guy who seems cursed to come in second in Selina's heart. He is one of the more interesting supporting characters out there and Brubaker uses him well, giving us a normal human point-of-view in this title. The art is perfect for this quiet interlude but it is hard to tell if it would be suitable for another storyline. All in all, this issue is a nice respite from the danger and menace that you usually see in this title-- but it isn't something we would like to see too often.
