Batman/Catwoman Reprises Adam Hughes Catwoman #51 Mugshot Cover
This is the Catwoman cover to Catwoman #51 by Adam Hughes from 2006 which can sell for $160 raw. And it's all down to that cover, featuring a mugshot of Catwoman with the Gotham PD slate acting like a push-up bra. Drenched from the rain, her mascara is also running. It has become rather iconic.
The cover has been homaged and reprieved before, and there have been any number of cosplay recreations of the scene. So in today's Batman/Catwoman #7 by Tom King and Liam Sharp, after a night together, Selina Kyle leaves a note for Bruce Wayne.
To tell him that she has gone to killer The Joker. Something that, after Bruce Wayne's death, she eventually gets round to doing, in previous episodes of Batman/Catwoman. Which has a cost to it…
Not her first time, indeed. Very nice Mr Tom King and Mr Liam Sharp. Batman/Catwoman #7 is published by DC Comics today.
