review 1: Batgirl and Catwoman in a skimpy- (and sometimes no-) clothed night long duel? What's not to love?In all seriousness, I really enjoyed this novel. I don't have too much knowledge of Batgirl, but really enjoyed the the portrayal of a really raw talent nagged by doubts about what she does on night-time. It was great to see that up against Catwoman - everything Batgirl wants to be except on the wrong side of the law.The artwork, other than a few niggly panels, was a high standard.
review 2: The Cat and the Bat tells the story of how Batgirl and Catwoman first met. Told from the point of view of both characters, the two engage in a cat-and-mouse game across Gotham to gain possession of Commissioner Gordon's secret notebook - a note book that can expose the secrets
... more of the Gotham underworld and change the balance of power in the city.This story is a hoot from beginning to end. Kevin McGuire's expressive faces pair perfectly with Nicieza's writing, presenting a green-behind-the-ears Barbara Gordon, in over her head in trying to take down Catwoman but still determined to do it. While not complex, it's a good light-hearted chase story and reminds of a less dark chapter in the Dark Knight's legacy. less

This was a very odd, yet very well done tale of Batgirl and Catwoman and their utter differences.

Very entertaining read. Excellent Batgirl/Catwoman story. Great writing and great art.

Silly. And a little bit weird. But mostly harmless and silly.
