Nothing to Fear, starring Selina Kyle

[aeka]

Scarecrow discovers the hard way what makes the Catwoman go bump in her mind.


From Catwoman #58: 1 page.



Oh wow? someone actually gives Scarecrow nightmares? that's a first.

Anyway, Scarecrow manages to inject Selina with fear toxin, which causes her to hallucinate like whoa! before discovering she can fight back by conquering her fears. She then decides to test that theory further by injecting herself with a stronger potent hallucinogen, only to discover it doesn't work like she thought it would...

From Catwoman #60: 6 pages.













Scarecrow's face in that last panel is priceless. ♥

FEAR ITSELF: Catwoman

[biod]

She certainly isn't afraid of silicon.
I never really liked this Scarecrow costume. I'm sure the fear gass makes it a lot worse but it looks too whimsical to me.

Take that, Harry Potter.

Balent's Catwoman was kind of self-absorbed wasn't she?

[nemryn]

Nope, Dependency totally can jump out at you from the shadows. Hallucinations are weird like that.

This art is... not good.

Clarification?

In that first page from #60, was there a reason Selina's hair was green? Or was that someone else?

The art was not some of the worst of Balent's...and that's the very definition of "damning with faint praise."

Weird "boobs don't work that way" and Selina constantly on her tip-toes aside, it is a pretty interesting look at her psyche. It makes sense that her relationship with Bruce would be both comforting and yet scary to her since she want to stay in control.

Wait, isn't this the story where Selina voluntarily injected HERSELF with fear toxin? Say what you will about Bronwyn Carlton's unloved run, but she at least played with the idea that Selina actually had to deal with the long-term consequences of dosing herself like that.

That Catwoman costume will always be my favorite but on this run I felt like Balent's art was lacking a little after the series went on. In the beginning it wasn't too bad.
