A review by dynila
Catwoman, Vol. 3: Death of the Family by Ann Nocenti

1.0

I was hoping the other reviewers were wrong. I was unfamiliar with Nocenti prior to reading this volume and I hoped the negativity was just geeks gone amok. Nope.

The story, the dialogue, it's all bad. In the case of the dialogue, horrendous. No coherence to the story, jumping all over, just a painful read.

Then there's the art. While it's inconsistent all over the place what really drove me batty in this book was the mangled panel arrangements. They were hard to read and the majority of the time there didn't seem to be a good reason other than a bored artist for why they were so incoherent.

All in all, an editorial fail -- someone should have caught all this crap before it made it to print.

I bought it, because I want to support strong female characters, but I wish DC had put out something that didn't make me wish I hadn't paid for it.
