Personally I prefer catwoman/batman mainly because they've been on & off for roughly 70 years

Batman catwoman. They can understand each other, they have a lot in common... personaly I don't like Talia at all.

The Bat and the Cat.

Talia has proven time and time again where her loyalties really lie ... with her power-mad genocidal father. Besides, I just don't like the character of Talia. She's always seemed .. subservient to me. I mean, she's fine bossing around goons, but when good ol' Ra's or even Batman enter into the picture, she fades into the background. She's completely overshadowed by her father and by her ex-lover. Her character doesn't seem to matter on its own ... it's never "Talia al Ghul" but "Ra's daughter" or "Batman's lover". She's completely defined by her relationship to other characters. Plus, I just can't stand the way she always calls Batman "Beloved". And she just says it so much, like the end of every sentence has to be, "... beloved". Now I know Talia has probably had her share of good stories, and I'm sure she could be a strong, interesting character. But personally? I don't like her. I even tend to avoid any storyline that features her as an important character. I still can't decide which is worse ... Talia or that little monster Damian?

Now, Catwoman on the other hand ... there's no denying she's a criminal, but somehow that doesn't seem to matter. She's fiercely independent and she has style that Talia just doesn't have. She's sarcastic (which I always love). Heck, she's even has her own independent series (multiple, in fact). Can you really imagine an ongoing title featuring Talia? Not really. Catwoman goes beyond her relationship to Batman. She works as a character on her own, which is great. She's not defined by others.

So, yeah. Go Catwoman!

@Dr. Jonathan Crane: My thoughts exactly. She seems like a tool at times.

...and besides, Batman always seems to be more interested in Selina.

Talia ftw, I absolutely hate Catwoman

Bats and Cats for me. In the cartoon series, the relationship between Batman and Talia seemed so... forced, e.g., as like a storyline convenience. She's portrayed as some exotic lover with some evil family heritage. Sounds like something you'd see in a cliche action movie.

Catwoman is more of a continuing presence in Batman's life. Their relationship feels a lot less gimmicky than the Talia/Batman pairing. I like Talia as a character though (sometimes), just not when she's vying for Batman's affection.

Batman & Catwoman for me. They have alot in common and really understand eachother since they both lead similar lives. talia....well i never really liked her much, i mean yea she's shown to save bruce's life but she always seem abit to pshyco for my liking. but hey thats just my opinion. plus i think bob kane wanted batman and catwoman to be together

So why her? Why not Zatanna or Talia al Ghul? Because:
