So! The news has finally broken! Tini and I are doing a fun little thing called BATMAN/CATWOMAN: GOTHAM WAR! It’s going to be a wild couple of months where our books cross over and we get to tell a story we’ve been working on since we both landed at DeeCee Comics!
Tini, of course, has already summed things up far better than I could, but I’ll just say that it’s very satisfying digging into the Batfamily and the dynamic between Mr. Batman and Ms. Catwoman. They’re …. kind of sexy???
We kick things off with Batman/Catwoman: The Gotham War - Battle Lines #1, with returning champions Mike Hawthorne and Adriano Di Benedetto, and it’s going to shake things up and bonk you on the head in a very good way. It’s been so fun working with Tini on this! We’re like a couple of kids banging our action figures together, unsure if the banging is action-y or sex-y! BANG! BANG!
And here’s a cover from the ever-glorious Jorge, who, yes, will be drawing the BATMAN issues of the crossover!
So damned good.
I’ll surely be boring you with more details as the event comes nearer, but I think you’re in for a treat!
TOUR UPDATE!

Bye!
Another war in Gotham? Tell me, why do you suppose it is after City of bane, JOKER War, and Fear State, that people would willingly choose to remain here in Gotham City? Especially with ANOTHER war brewing on the horizon.
Which begs the question, WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO SET BATMAN AND CATWOMAN AGAINST ONE ANOTHER IN AN EVENT BIG ENOUGH TO BE LABLED A WAR!!!!?????
I mean seriously, I know their relationship has been a bit on the, how do I put it, back burner, but back in Failsafe, aside from her and Valmont, she and Bruce seemed to be doing fine...so to speak. Where exactly should one who is looking for answers, look to for answers to how things escalate to the point where a war breaks out between Bats and Cats? Cause unless there’s someone orchestrating things behind the scenes, I am hard pressed to imagine a scenario where these two clash in a way they haven’t in probably 30-40 years now??
Also, any chance of a roster list on who will be on Team Cat and Team Bat?
Have fun destroying Gotham for the bazillionth time Chip. Be sure to save some for Joker, Joker, and Joker *waves bye bye*
Thanks for putting in overtime today to sign for everyone in Vancouver's super-long line! How does lots of driving + short intense signing events compare to your typical convention experience?
