I give Catwoman a lot of praise and has deserved it ever since Brubaker and Cooke relaunched the title, but there's very little Pfeifer can do with this editorial mandated Salvation Run tie-in arc. I'm honestly impressed with how he's managed to skirt the issue here and try and go off on his own and ignore the entire thing while still technically being there.
I refer, of course, to this little mishap with the alien computers that resulted in a fun romp through Selina's "ideal" Earth where she can take down the entire Justice League by herself and just ignore all the problems and tragedies that have built up in her life over the past couple years. It's still the product of a tie-in to a terrible story and this arc could very well be considered pure filler that doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things, but it's still enjoyable enough and this little sidetrip shouldn't be looked at as a total loss. I can see a newcomer being disappointed with the book based on the last couple issues, but I hope they stick around until we get back to Earth or go back and pick up some earlier trades to see what the book is really like.
Verdict - Check It
