Comic book fans are about to learn a bit more about the relationship between the Cat and the Bat, in the upcoming Batman/Catwoman Special coming out way from DC Comics in January 2022.
The one-shot follows the early life of Selina Kyle and her descent into the underworld, and reveals Bruce Wayne has been a part of her life all along.
Now expanded to celebrate the legacy of iconic artist John Paul Leon, whose untimely passing after a long battle with cancer shocked the comics world this past May, this special will feature the work Leon completed for the original story plus tributes to the renowned artist created in his name by some of his closest friends and admirers. Bernard Chang, Shawn Crystal, Mitch Gerads and Dave Stewart will bring the original story to its conclusion, lettered by Clayton Cowles, while comics’ top artists gather to celebrate Leon’s creative legacy through pin-up pages and essays in the special, including Lee Bermejo, Denys Cowan, Joëlle Jones, Dave Gibbons, Walter Simonson, and more.
Batman/Catwoman Special #1 will arrive on January 25, 2022.
