More BatCat: Tim Sale's Date Knight

[chipsnopotatoes]

mystery asked about Tim Sale's Solo book. There are two stories in it that I really liked. Posting this BatCat one first. Superman's will follow shortly...





First of all, Tim Sale is one of my favorite Catwoman artists. He draws her so powerful, like a jaguar. I also know he loves the character, so even if he uses my least favorite costume with the Phelps goggles and the pilgrim boots, I still like it.

Date Knight starts out like any other night in Gotham ...



She wants to play, so they play. There is much romping around town before dinner...



She passed on the cat at the museum, but steals a shrimp from a diner! Tsk, tsk, Bruce is a cheap date :(



My favorite panels!

Come to think of it I don't think Solo did all that well when it was published. Maybe didn't know what to expect or what kind of quality was in them (though now I see back-copies go for a good) so from a financial POV Didio was right but from the creative side it was really good for DC's prestige (and would sell well collected later on).

Sales-wise, Solo tanked.

I hate that it was canceled but I see why it was.
