![]() ![]() ![]() By replacing Selina’s traditional love interest of Bruce Wayne with Luke and by incorporating the League into Catwoman’s origin, Maas breathes new life into the oft-told Catwoman story. Catwoman must join forces with Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn in order to survive Gotham criminals and the League of Assassins, as well as complete her plan to save Maggie. She arrives in Gotham under the alias Holly Vanderhees and soon finds her alter ego Catwoman entangled with Batwing (aka Luke Fox), a superhero still struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder from his time as a U.S. Years later, Selina escapes from the League with a small fortune, a thumb drive holding the secret to reusable Lazarus Pits (which heal the sick), and a high-tech cat battle suit. In exchange for Maggie’s safety and care, Selina agrees to join Talia al Ghul in the League of Assassins. Gr 8 Up–In this graphic novel retelling of Maas’s popular DC Icons book, Selina Kyle, part of the Leopard gang in Gotham, fights in underground rings to raise money for her sister Maggie’s illness, before being busted by the police. ![]()
