What would happen if Selina Kyle got her own version of a "Dark Knight Returns" style story, but without Batman, Joker, or Commissioner Gordon around? That's the question artist and writer Cliff Chiang will answer with a new DC Black Label story coming this October in "Catwoman: Lonely City" - a four-part miniseries that sees an older Selina released from prison and facing a very different Gotham City.
Via Newsarsama, here's the synopsis.
"10 years ago, the massacre known as Fools’ Night claimed the lives of Batman, the Joker, Nightwing, and Commissioner Gordon… and sent Selina Kyle, the Catwoman, to prison," reads DC's description of Catwoman: Lonely City. "A decade later, Gotham has grown up - it’s put away costumed heroism and villainy as childish things. The new Gotham is cleaner, safer…and a lot less free, under the watchful eye of Mayor Harvey Dent and his Batcops.
"It’s into this new city that Selina Kyle returns, a changed woman…with her mind on that one last big score: the secrets hidden inside the Batcave! She doesn’t need the money—she just needs to know…who is 'Orpheus?'"
Catwoman: Lonely City goes on sale with its first issue on October 19.
