Catwoman Returns! - More Catwoman Art for Sale


Michelle Pfeiffer perrr-fectly embodied Catwoman in the movie.

The Artists Choice has a group of Catwoman/Batman/Penguin pages available for sale - from the seminal 90's Batman movie - 'Batman Returns' .



My favorite thing about these pages, besides the art by Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez, is the kitschy-fun dialog. For example, Penguin's "I saw her first... Gotta Fly" - spoken after Catwoman's explosive first appearance.

And sorry, page 26 is already spoken for. "I saw her first..." :P

Miss Fury and Catwoman... Collected



I wish there were more collections of Catwoman stores, but lets be thankful for what we have. This storyby Suzette Chan at Sequential Tart, published during Catwoman The Movie, highlights Catwoman's evolution from one note to full character.

I am glad she touched on Miss Fury, the Marvel comics Golden Age 'prototype' for Miller/Jim Balent's look for Selina. I am surprised more is not made of her slinky/cat burglar look, that is closer to the Catwoman we know today - than her 1940's counterpart. And to boot Miss Fury was created, written and illustrated by Tarpe (June) Mills, who reportedly resembled her creation. Amazing.

Catwoman Art for Sale

Beginning today I will regularly post links to Catwoman art that I found for sale on the web. Of course, I love to collect Catwoman art, but I can't afford all the art out there - and maybe this will come in handy for some other Cat-fans.

Ty Templeton, artist extraordinaire, recently listed some McDonald's art from the 90's including some sweet Catwoman/Batman/Joker pages used for Happy Meal art!

As you may know, Ty wrote and drew for the Batman The Animated Series comic book, in its various incarnations. So its especially cool to see this art.

DC Dictionary - Batman and Catwoman



This blog posted Batman Vs Catwoman art by Joe Kubert from the Super Dictionary (Warner, 1978). Its nice to see Kubert's Catwoman!

80's Catwoman in Zellers commercials



Zellers is a Canadian version of Target, but in the 80's was a discount store like Ames or Hills. Ty Templeton animated these commercials and posted a link to the videos on his blog. There are versions with Joker, Riddler, Catwoman and Penguin - where they are overcharging families for toys, before Batman and Robin save the day. 80% of each commercial is reused but the villains portion is original in each version. Take a watch!
