The
adventures of Selina Kyle, Catwoman, suddenly takes a turn
for for the worse as she faces her most personally devastating
moment - and all is suddenly lost. Catwoman has crossed the
deadly and ruthless Black Mask, and now he is making her pay.
Selina's loved ones begin to meet terrible fates as she is
forced to go on the offensive...
Relentless
is a collection of stories that sees Selina Kyle as an important
member of the community by day and, by night as Catwoman,
putting the loot she takes from Gotham's underworld to charitable
use.
The
first half of this collection, which sees Black Mask setting
up his revenge on the Catwoman, is well paced, a little gruesome
and, to be honest, rather disturbing in places. That's not
an insult by the way. Everything is set up well and the art
work is pretty good.
Then,
the last third of this collection lets everything down. It's
slow, poorly illustrated (it's hard to make out what is going
on in some panels) and the script is rather sloppy. While
the aftermath of Black Mask's plan - and the consequences
to those that Selina holds dear - needed to be told, I think
that giving almost a third of this collection over to it was
a little extreme.
This
is far from your average Catwoman tale but, while there is
still plenty to appease fans of the series, it could have
been a little more engaging.
