There’s some poetry in this Bat, after all.
Arguing over where they first met, and admitting it was love at first sight - I always knew that was what Batman and Catwoman talk about after rooftop sex! Really, Tom King, I have issues with your writing sometimes, but when it comes to “relationship goals for Batman and Catwoman”, you must be a mind reader, or something.
Bruce and Selina, having a moment... give me a million more.

When the Cat saves the Bat. It happens a lot, you know?

Bat and Cat have had their fair share of kisses through the years, but this one is probably one of my favorites... I love how intimate this moment seems to be, and, if you read the story, you know it is. Selina even says it’s the best kiss she had in her life...
I highly recommend the reading of the arc, “House of Hush”. It’s from “Batman: Streets of Gotham”, #14 to #21. Great story by the master Paul Dini, art by the very talented Dustin Nguyen. It’s from many years ago, but it’s the kind of story that never feels old...
Batman realizing he’s about to enter the NC-17 moment of his nightly adventures.
What I love about those panels are Selina’s smile and her absolute confidence. Look how relaxed she is, absolutely sure she has the control of the situation, even though Batman is pinning her down.
And, of course, Robin’s expression. He was a clueless little kid at the time, wasn’t he?
Regular date night.

Finally, you guys!
So, although this here seems to be a sweet a moment, and I will, as a fan, cherish it forever, I can’t help but feel uneasy. Damn DC Comics has screwed us fans over so many times, it’s hard to trust again. Geez, I have trust issues with comic book editors! What has the world come to...
Just hope all this love doesn’t mean we are going to have some bullshit arc down the road in which Catwoman dies or betrays Batman. It would be so shameful, and yet so typical of DC...
But I’ve decided I’ll just take it as it is right now, and I’ll try to enjoy the ride for as long as it goes. Let’s hope this is just the first of many moments of similar exchanges between those long time lovers.

Adam Hughes is the man!
