This was an interesting book. First of all, this picture at the right, really doesn't do the Adam Hughes cover justice. On the cover all the computer screens are red, and the light is reflecting off of CatWoman's leather outfit. It really makes for a nice effect. All the face in the background are kind of whitewashed over. They aren't nearly as prominent. The actual cover is really breathtaking. Anyways, Batman, after being in DC with the rest of the League, has come home to recruit CatWoman. Que pasa? It's not actually for him. It's to try to figure out what's going on with the Bana. They're like an outlaw faction of the Amazons. Anyways, they're creating terrorist threats all over the country, and Batman wants someone on the inside so he can figure out what they're up to, and their next move. To look at them, they look like they just stepped out of an African jungle. But when Selina gets to their hideout, it looks like something out of Battlestar Galactica, or Star Wars. Major high tech devices. That's another thing Batman wants to figure out, what they have, and where they got it from. The Bana immediately put CatWoman to work. She has to steal a device from STAR labs. She doesn't know it, but it's a hand-held nuclear device. And now the Bana are holding the East End of Gotham hostage. And CatWoman, being the closest to the scene, has to figure out how to stop them. But that won't happen until next issue. I really think Will Pfeifer and David Lopez are doing a nice job on this book. They've really brought a nice feel to it.
