Selina Kyle

In this pivotal era of Gotham's history, Selina Kyle crosses paths with Bruce Wayne at the high-society wedding of Johnny Viti, unaware of his vigilante identity as Batman. That same evening, operating as Catwoman, she infiltrates mob boss Carmine Falcone's penthouse for a high-risk heist, only to be interrupted by Batman. As Falcone places a one-million-dollar bounty on both their heads, Catwoman allies herself with the Dark Knight to investigate the mysterious Holiday Killer while navigating Gotham's mob war, eventually joining Two-Face and other costumed rogues to challenge Falcone's grip on the city.

This storyline highlights Selina's complex evolution from an independent cat burglar into a central power player in Gotham City. Her clashes and reluctant cooperation with Batman deepen their personal connection while reinforcing her unyielding independence—famously asserting she is always on her own side. Additionally, her personal quest to uncover her suspected parentage as Carmine Falcone's estranged daughter drives her to travel across the globe to Rome, establishing her personal stakes beyond simple thievery.

Catwoman's appearance features a sleek, form-fitting catsuit engineered for high agility, acrobatic contortionism, and stealth. Inspired by her deep affinity for cats, her suit includes sharp razor claws designed to mark her targets' faces, a technique she famously used against mob boss Carmine Falcone. Her tactical outfit is complemented by a signature bullwhip—a weapon she mastered under the tutelage of former heavyweight boxer Ted Grant—allowing her to fight off heavily armed adversaries and navigate Gotham's rooftops with lethal grace.
