~ Catwoman |
Summary
Selina Kyle, also known by her alias, Catwoman, is a costumed thief of Gotham City. Her criminal activities are often tempered by a reluctant altruism, making her an inconsistent villain and occasional heroine. She regularly eludes capture by the Dark Knight, and maintains a complicated, adversarial relationship with Batman that frequently turns flirtatious and occasionally romantic. Over the years, their relationship has developed to the point where they each have both become increasingly reliable allies. She is also the daughter of crime boss Rex “The Lion” Calabrese, and heiress to his crime family.
