catwoman: when in rome

Collecting the 6-part series that guest-starred Batman and a host of Gotham's most colorful and dangerous villains, WHEN IN ROME chronicles Catwoman's mysterious trip to Italy and her dealings with the deadly Falcone crime family. As a huge fan of Jeph Loeb and Tim Sales combined works I was expecting great things. A nice spin-off of the Long Halloween/Dark Victory arc. After stealing a valuable ring from the Vatican, Catwoman is attacked by the Cheetah.

The Eisner Award-winning team of Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale returns to further the exciting adventures they began in BATMAN: THE LONG HALLOWEEN and followed in BATMAN: DARK VICTORY! Story and art are both firmly average. Tim Sale's art is as phenomenal as always as he really draws his characters in such a unique way. Refresh and try again. I guess When in Rome could be described as a spin off from The Long Halloween.

I don't think that it fully set up Catwoman as an entity, which leaves the ending hanging. Should be read between A Long Halloween and Dark Victory! When in Rome is a great addition to Selina's backstory, and if you are a fan of Loeb and Sale's previous work, you probably already have it.

In a pitched fight with the Don's son Guillermo, Catwoman is put "on ice" using Mr. Freeze's freeze gun, but escapes and barters a deal with Guillermo. Loeb and Sale simply did it again.

Gregory Wright and Bjarne Hansen handled the colors on the previous Loeb/Sale DC collaborations and did a wonderful job. Jeph Loebs work took a bit of a dive at Marvel but his DC work was always great, the two Batman stories mentioned were nicely done, I wasnt always a fan of the mystery story but loved the interplay between characters and the choices Loeb made of who to use, the same is true here as catwoman travels to Rome with the Riddler on a mission which if youve read dark victory you will know that she was looking for something.

I've read books pencilled by Tim Sale before, and I enjoy his layouts, his action panels, and use of silhouettes, but, for me, the art in this book was a step up because of the watercolor wash and coloring of Dave Stewart.

I'm a big DC fan and an even bigger Batman fan, so my reason for buying this was based on having read The Long Halloween. to see the true conspirator behind the revelation.
