Batman Confidential #19 - DC


What can I say? Batgirl . . Catwoman . . and Kevin Maguire. Can you say . . . Meeooww!? Nobody draws these two babes like Kevin does. And with this story-arc we get 5 issues of his stuff. Fan-frikkin-tastic! Anyways, we finally find out this issue just what is the deal with the notebook. It seems that Jim was looking in to the Russian Mobs. Well a friend of Selina's is being held by them . . white slavery, or wives for sale, or whatever . . and she wants to get her free. She thinks that the information in Jim's book will help to nail her handlers. This is a Fabian Nicieza story, so of course it has great interaction between the characters. That's the way he writes 'em, and he's doing a really good job with this one. From what I understand, this is really the first time that Selina and Barbara have met. All they know of each other is the other's reputation. However, by the end of the book . . when they blow up the Russian warehouse, and probably most of the pier along with it . . they've gotten the Batman's attention and he's wants to know what's going on . . . " . . but I think I'm actually afraid to ask . ." This is a great story-arc and we still have 2 issues to go.
