A review by ashkitty93
Catwoman, Volume 3: Under Pressure by Jimmy Palmiotti, Paul Gulacy, Ed Brubaker
3.0
3.5 stars
What bugged me most about this one (aside from the continuously exploitative poses) was Slam. Through the first two volumes, Slam's been easily identifiable as your typical noir guy with his scruffy stubble and greying hair. It's like Gulacy and Palmiotti de-aged him here; making him clean-shaven totally threw me off.
Otherwise it was pretty decent; Selena gets momentarily abducted by that Egyptian cult, and faces off with Philo Zeiss. The War Games set wasn't my favorite -- Bruce is a huge dick to Barbara, of all people. And for what? So that felt dumb. But Bruce and Selina's date was so cute, and her birthday party was a sweet way to wrap it up.
