I was so freakin excited to get to read this!!
The plot was pretty cool, I didn't really expect it.

Even though it was only for a few pages, I LOVED Batman and Catwoman's banter.

I thought some of the panels were too similar to the panel before on certain pages, so it felt a little bland to me a couple of times, but it didn't dull the story. But besides that, the art is beautiful, everyone looks so good.
And Selina is buff? Hell yes

Definitely want to read the rest of this series, and I would love more of this Catwoman.


I got this arc through Netgalley and DC.

First off, amazing art. To be expected but honestly stunning. I kept having to stop to just admire the art. Especially with Selina and the subtle ways her outfits show off her lean muscle!

The interactions between Batman and Catwoman were also so cute and I really liked how they wrote batman when it is just them together. You can really feel the history behind them.

I also liked Selina's background with her sister and mom and how complicated it is.

It's not a super memorable story but it is a good comic to pick up and read through when you have time!

I really want Wilson to write more BatCat because that was the true highlight for me while reading this!

Batman & Catwoman? Count me in.

I can’t help it. I’m a sucker for romance.

G. Willow Wilson's Catwoman is a great and fresher take on Selina Kyle that doesn't abandon what makes her fun and interesting at her core. Wilson seamlessly weaves romantic scenes yet strikes a balance with the notes we have come to love from Catwoman. Namely, Catwoman's relentless sense of agency and unbound female energy that resists patriarchal impulses of control and subservience. Catwoman always walks to the beat of her own drum even in her romantic entanglements.

The art rendered by Jamie McKelvie underscores all of this by presenting a classic depiction of Catwoman that catapults off the comic page and gives us a strong sense of her ability as a thief and superhero, but also her commitment to family dynamics. These contrasting characteristics of Catwoman provides readers with a Catwoman who is both woman and fully fleshed out as a character deserving careful storytelling and attention.

Thank you to NetGalley and DC comics for the advanced reader copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

I loved it!

4.5/5

Thanks to netgalley for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I had such a blast with this oneshot! I went into it a bit wary since I’ve heard some mixed things on the One Bad Day series, but I loved this one. The art for Catwoman was lovely (I wasn’t the biggest fan of the Batman art specifically, tbh, but Selina is the main focus of this and in that the art shined for me), I loved seeing Selina’s inner monologue, and I’m really interested in this new character! And the Batcat was lovely; I’m such a sucker for these two and this was really no exception.

This was a fun and quick read that left me satisfied but also wanting more. I enjoyed seeing a different side to Selina Kyle as details are given about her childhood and how her family struggled due to poverty. It was truly emotional and explains why she’s always been drawn to shiny things!
The artwork is major eye-candy galore and I kept taking my time to take in all the spectacular details. The anatomy was spot-on, line work and use of textures were nothing short of amazing. Jamie McKelvie is a very talented artist.

I’ll definitely be picking up the follow-up to this issue once it’s out! If you’re a fan of Catwoman and especially the Batman/Catwoman relationship - I highly suggest keeping this on your radar.

A nice Catwoman tale. Batman shows up, but doesn't take over the story as he often does. I enjoy DC/Gotham titles when they're small like this one (and perhaps a bit more grounded in "reality.")

Story ends on a bit of a mysterious note, but that's ok. I appreciated the art and the action sequences.

A very fun introspection to the mind of Catwoman, we follow her as she finds out a family heirloom her mom pawned off is estimated to be worth $20,000 and decides to steal it back. I really enjoyed the commentary she has on the rich and capitalism. The antagonist has a really interesting motive about high society art and art hunters i’d love to see more of!

It could partly be that I love the Batman/Catwoman relationship, but this is one of the best One Bad Day issues. Not only is the story original and interesting, but it's also full of great moments of character development that give Catwoman and Selina Kyle great depth. It has moments that made me laugh and think and some super fun Batman banter. It really is a great little issue.
The art is good, nothing spectacular or really eye-catching but solid and a good fit to the story.

Very happy thanks to NetGalley and DC Comics for the great read!

If you love comics and Catwoman this will be a quick read that leaves you wanting more! I’ve always been a Batman fan and this spinoff was no different, it left me wanting more!

Selina Kyle, the infamous Catwoman, is the greatest thief Gotham has ever seen. When she finds out a treasure from her past is being sold for a fortune, she is determined to do anything in her power to steal it back. However, it looks like things won't be that easy when another master thief enters the scene.

Gorgeous artwork, flowing plot. I found myself rooting for Selina and really connecting with her emotional backstory.

Loved how they added the relationship between Catwoman ave Batman in it. Was a quick read that really show cased why she does what she does.

Many thanks to NetGalley, G. Willow Wilson, and DC Comics for a chance to review this book. I was given this book in exchange for my fair and honest review. I have not felt compelled, in any way, by the author, the publisher, or NetGalley to alter my sincerest thoughts on this book. Every word is solely and completely mine.

The One Bad Day concept is a profoundly resonant idea that postulates that villains are just one bad day away from going insane. The story-beat originated with The Killing Joke, the Joker going whole hog nuts. Here, the story involves Catwoman in a tale that involves a backstory where Selina Kyle and her Mom as an impoverished, nearly indigent family, one step away from homelessness, and a family heirloom. If Catwoman survived the backstory, there's nothing that's going to drive her to the brink of madness, in her current milieu. It therefore strikes me that the comic never reaches that breaking point necessary to be "the straw that breaks the camel's back.

IMHO, One Bad Day: Catwoman is a good story; a well-told Catwoman story, but Selina jokes with Batman, seems to be well-adjusted. There's definitely no point where Catwoman seems on the precipice of acting out of character. The artwork is spectacular and Jamie McKelvie's linework is something to be celebrated.

A fantastic but quick story that lets the reader see how Catwoman approaches issues of "unfair" - and does it with style.

Note: I received access to read this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

Promising, but too short. It's hard to get an idea of what this version of Catwoman is like from what I read. The character art is very good and has detailed facial expressions. The story is simple but effective. Still, it feels like it is missing larger motivations among all of its characters; hopefully something that will be corrected in the next TP if there is one.

Catwoman gets more than she bargained for when she attempts to steal back a family heirloom that was sold by her mother years earlier. The ending left a lot of open questions, which could be explored in future installments, and did not make for a satisfying ending. Nothing was truly tied up, which can happen in comic series. But if this is a one-shot that was supposed to start and end a single story, I feel that it missed the mark.

I absolutely loved this small but mighty addition to DC's Batman Universe. G. Willow Wilson perfectly encapsulated Catwoman's personality and essence. My favorite type of comics are those that make you WANT to learn more about the characters, and this title teased just enough that I'm absolutely hoping for more. Not to mention, the art was absolutely gorgeous. I was a big fan of the different textures that were used. This title is definitely one that I would like to add to my shelves upon release. Absolutely recommended.

Y’all the way I squealed when I got approved for this!!

Like I’ve said previously, I love DC comics, I love Batman and I’ve heard such good things about the One Bad Day series. A limited run with 8 issues. Inspired by the line “All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to lunacy. That’s how far the world is from where I am. Just one bad day.” from The Killing Joke.

Now I love Catwoman and the story here was great. The art? Stunning. Catwoman was incredibly sexy throughout the entire comic. Even when she’s just walking, the anatomy is beautiful.

The story was interesting and we got to see a side of Catwoman, Selina, that I’ve at least not seen. Seeing her with her sister, seeing how much she wanted to get something back that should have been in her family anyway. The way she struggled as a child due to poverty which sort of explains her want of shiny things.

I don’t want to spoil it, so I’ll keep this short. The relationship between Catwoman and Batman was phenomenal, I loved the way they were drawn together and how he still tried to be Batman while being in love with her and her being a villain.

It was a fun read and I loved how it ended. I absolute recommend this. It’s a fun, easy read that I think does the character justice. She does indeed seem like she is having one hell of a bad day.

5 stars.

I received this eARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

A short but affecting story of a woman trying to bring her family back together despite lies and desperate actions from all sides.

This was just okay, I guess?

The story is pretty simple and the art is really clean. Catwoman goes on a heist to steal a brooch that meant a lot to her mom, only to find out that it's a forgery. There's a question of whether sentimental value and monetary value both mean the same to Catwoman.

I love G. Willow Wilson's Marvel comics (A-Force and certain Ms. Marvel runs) which was why I requested this arc. This is my first DC comic book and it definitely won't be my last. I'm more of a Marvel girl, but Catwoman gives me Black Widow vibes so I'm totally down for more Catwoman comics.

I enjoyed reading this comic and I'm glad I gave it a try! It was interesting to see more of Catwoman and her character. The artwork was energetic and added to the flow of the story.

My thanks to DC Entertainment, DC Comics, and NetGallery a copy of this book for my review! I look forward to reading more DC comics.
