Compelling story with some interesting back story on Catwoman. Batman makes an appearance too. And who is the woman Catwoman is following?

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful art
Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2023
I mean, you can’t hate a Catwoman book that has art like this one. The story is just a regular heist, like most of Selina’s stories. Batman’s appearance is a must for this series and here they give that romantic moment we all expect. The heist itself is intriguing, looking at Catwoman pulling it off is nice. Usually they try to give some personal or deeper context o these heists, stating that she is just not a thief, but something more complex. The story behind the brooch gives an unexpected resolution, but a very realistic one; not everything has to be successful, sometimes things don’t work and that’s life. The antagonist could’ve been explored more though, it was just an excuse here.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well done story
Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2023
This is the sixth Comic book that I read from the “Batman: One Bad Day” series that DC Comics published and this was a good one. Each volume in this set goes over a story of a different Batman villain and this time it is Catwoman. I like how each volume is a stand alone story (you do not need to read them chronological order) and coming in at 88 pages it was brief enough that it didn’t have to be a story drawn out over many issues while being long enough to entertain.
In this story Selina Kyle’s backstory of her childhood in considered as she pursues stealing a piece of valuable jewelry. This time though it is personal (I won’t ruin it with any giveaways) and one that has to do with her difficult childhood growing up. Batman of course is alert to Catwoman’s plot but there’s another villain at play here and even beats Catwoman in her own pursuit! This mysterious woman is never fully explored but there’s enough here where the alert reader will see how she’s a foil that compares Catwoman to this con artist, and how the lady is like an older version of cat woman.
I enjoyed the twists and turn and in the end it made me think about difficult childhood, painful memory and also appreciating the present relationships we do have right now with loved ones.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gorgeous and heartfelt!
Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2023
I requested this for a few reasons, the first of which is my love for Selina Kyle. The next is because I adore pretty much anything Jamie McKelvie works on, and I've liked some of G. Willow Wilson's work in the past.  Also, that cover is GORGEOUS. The costume redesign? The texture? The use of shadows? Absolute perfection.

This was a touching story, especially for it's short length, since while it says the length is 88 pages officially, my e-arc was only 64 (this was likely due to the condensation of two page spreads, lack of credit pages, etc.). Overall I really enjoyed this! It was nice to see Selina's life from this perspective, the action scenes were flawless, and I loved the interactions between Selina and the guest star of the story.

I think the story itself is more of a 4 star read, but because the art was so good I'm bumping it up to five because I already want to go back and reread for the sake of admiring the art. Batman: One Bad Day: Catwoman is definitely something I'll want to read again, and something I'll be recommending to anyone who enjoys comics!

3.0 out of 5 stars A Cute Expose.
Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2023
I have been a fan of Batman comics for a great many years, and truly adore Selina Kyle's pivotal role in the universe, so it's fun to see her running her own capers. This time, it's personal. Family matters.

However, the stakes remained low in the beginning and the monologuing barely held my interest.
This piece of jewelry is important for that reason and therefore Catwoman must go through great lengths to attain it. Even the backstory was minute- though still fascinating. I wish they would have expanded more on the dynamics.

As a one-off caper, One Bad Day was perfectly entertaining even if it didn't add any weight to the larger canon. (Unless there's a larger tie-in to the One Bad Day series that I am unaware of.

Sadly, the most interesting part of Catwoman's story continues to be Batman and her relationship to him. While I adore how the dynamic was portrayed, it did steal some of Selina's thunder.

Overall, a great read for the Catwoman or BatCat coneiussuer, but not a title I plan on adding to my library and revisiting.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun Catwoman adventure!
Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2023
G. Willow Wilson and Jamie McKelvie? Sign me up!

I want to start by saying the art in this is just so clean and stunning, and the colorization too! Is it cool to call a comic featuring a cat burgler "bright"? Like, this is just my favorite kind of comic art. This is just a beautiful, beautiful book and I badly want a poster-sized version of that cover. And also, the inner-page of Selena looking badass in that purple chair haha. I highly recommend checking out McKelvie's other work though.

To the story and writing: G. Willow Wilson rarely disappoints, and succeeds with Batman: One Bad Day: Catwoman once more. She's also on the new Poison Ivy that I highly recommend. She's great at writing interesting and rounded women.

This is a great intro to who Catwoman is as a character, especially for this most recent universe re-boot (I'm 100% here for her new look, btw) as it gives a look at her history. Also loving the messaging in this hahaha Very on brand for the world of comics and for Catwoman in particular. After reading a recent Teen Titans issue where I felt some of my favorite characters were made to be out-of-character, it is nice to see one still be herself, even if she's been rebooted. I appreciate G. Willow Wilson remaining true to the character while still modernizing her.

I also still go weak in the knees for some classic Batman/Catwoman romance (especially if it has Bruce going weak in the knees for Selina, which in this comic he does hehe) and we get a little bit of that here too, so thank you Ms. Wilson!

I'm unsure if this story is continuing, but I sincerely hope it is because I loved absolutely everything about it!

I was sceptical since the writer had done the recent dreadful Poison Ivy “solo” series (though, might not be their fault, rather merely obeying editorial), and the One Bad Day line has been underwhelming or plain bad, however, this turned out to be a really solid issue.
Generally strong art.
Relatively self-contained; has sequel potential, but its value doesn’t hinge on it.
It isn’t even especially exceptional, but is solid enough, which makes it easily the best Catwoman comic in years.
