Gotham is now the safest city in America and its streets are patrolled by tactical officers called “Batcops”.
Selina Kyle, Catwoman has been in prison for the past ten years and has just been released. This was after an event called Fools’ Night that took the lives of the Joker, Batman and Gordon. Selina gets out and returns to Gotham City, which she barely recognizes. There are no more costumes, no more superheroes or supervillains, but there are plenty of police on the streets. Selina needs to go back and see where she fits. As a career criminal, what can she do now?
says Chiang in the trailer for the hardcover release.
Ten years ago, the massacre known as Fools’ Night claimed the lives of Batman , the Joker, Nightwing and Commissioner Gordon… and sent Catwoman Selina Kyle to prison. A decade later, Gotham has grown up – it has shed costumed heroism and villainy as unacceptable. New Gotham is cleaner, safer… and a lot less free under the watchful eye of Mayor Harvey Dent and his Batcops. It is to this new city that Selina Kyle returns.
