This series marks the transition between the old purple outfitted Catwoman, and the goggled version from the Cooke/Brubaker/Stewart run.

It's essentially a heist story, which deals with more a broke Selina pulling off a robbery with a bunch of her former partners in crime while not really getting into the whole costume deal, due to the world thinking that she was dead at the time and her wanting it to stay that way.

It also has a lot of references to various crime stories and films from the Sixties and Seventies, for example a character named Stark after the novelist Richard Stark, who happens to look a lot of Lee Marvin or something.

I like the art in this :)

Poor Selina. All that for what turned out to be a fake cup.

Love! I especially liked Stark (who is completely Lee Marvin), Jeff (I see a very young Marlon Brando) and Swifty. Oh, and Mom is cool.

Jeff said "OIE-YAH!" a lot. Does that mean anything to anyone? I figure it's very regional, or Darwyn made it up. Google fails me. From context, it's just "aw, yeah" in a Scandinavian dialect.

Yeah, Selina, you say you don't like guns. But that was then. Slam and Black Mask would say different.

Lee Marvin, who acted in POINT BLANK, which was based on THE HUNTER by Richard Stark, which Cooke eventually adapted into graphic novel!

Darwyn's adaptation of The Hunter is pure awesomesauce. It's pretty much become one of my go-to trades for a present.

It ain't a heist story unless you put a lot of stars in it, yup!

If there were any justice in the world, people would hold SELINA'S BIG SCORE up among the greatest Catwoman stories of all time, instead of ignoring or forgetting it in favor of crap like CATWOMAN: WHEN IN ROME.

Wouldn't Selina know it was a fake right off?

Especially if it was gold foil, right? But maybe she didn't have time to inspect it or something.

Well, she was supposed to be one of the greatest cat burglars. You would think she'd know something is a fake just by looking at it.

That costume is awesome.

It reminds me of this but both are cool nonetheless.

The original Ben: 10 series, the scan is from the episode called 'Ben 10000' where the protagonists end up in the future and Ben looked like an animated Will Ryker until his hair got ruffled in a fight . You may recall there is a Ben 10: Alien Force series currently airing which, IMO, while managing to fix some of the originals series defects managed to take away original series charm and everything.
