COMICS: DC Announces New CATWOMAN Creative Team And Direction
Catwoman has been a hit and miss series since "The New 52" relaunch, but this October will see newcomer Genevieve Valentine (Girls at the Kingfisher Club) replacing Ann Nocenti, with artist Garry Brown (Iron Patriot) joining her. Read on for details!
DC Comics have announced that Genevieve Valentine will take over Catwoman this October, and she will be taking the character in a very different direction as the events of Batman Eternal begin to effect the rest of the DC Universe. "Selina Kyle has discovered she's part of a legacy she never knew before, and heir to the family business," Valentine told io9 of the upcoming storyline. "She decides to accept the position, both because she sees a chance to restore a ruined Gotham and because, deep down, Selina's always played power games against herself. In this arc, she'll be coming face to face with what she's willing to do to keep her power, on a scale that could shake the whole city." Iron Patriot artist Garry Brown joins Valentine on the series which marks one of many creative team and story changes this October. What do you guys think?
