    As most people know already, DC is going to be rebooting the series really soon here and its going to be changing quite a bit about the world characters within it. I wanted to know what other people thought about how this change was going to effect Catwoman, is her relationship with batman going to continue, will it progress/regress, and where do you think she will be standing with the line of good and evil?

    I think she will remain an anti-heroine. I'm excited to see what's in store for her with this reboot.

    I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess they'll still write her terribly.  In fact I'll even guess she won't even make an appearance for at least a year.

    I bet they'll turn her back into a villain with less and less redeeming qualities. They'll keep the much hated prostitute origin because they seem to be promoting that in all media now, like this latest Arkham City crapfest.

    @TheSheepHerder: I am excited but at the same time very hesitant because of what they could end up doing. Then again they could decide to change the formula like they have been talking about and attempt to make her a permanent member of the Bat-Family. lol

    What is with all these negative nancys. I know DC doesn't have the best track record with Selina in the past SIX years, with the baby, heart being ripped out of her, and Zatanna mind-swipe... I personally am one of the Selina fans that don't mind the Miller/Newell origin, and I can't wait for Year One to come out. And Arkham City as well (I don't think they are promoting her as a reformed prostitute though). As far as the DCnU, they stated that it's not a full on reboot, I guess we will see. I doubt they will abandon Selina, for the fact that she is going to be EVERYWHERE in the media, with the video games, television shows, and movies. It would just be bad marketing on DC's part. I'm hoping for a new solo comic book series and that they will be true to her character (no more bad-birl groups!!). Just personal honest opinion. I'm a fan who is starting to be excited what DC has planned for Selina.

    I think they will keep her on the fence but have her hanging over the villain side more while still being in love with Bruce or she will stay exactly the same. She might know not that Bruce and Batman are one in the same any more though

    @CatBoy: The baby thing was kind of stupid, but I personally really enjoyed heart of hush and wouldn't mind seeing more relationship developing stories like it.

    With TDKR and Arkham City on the horizon? NAH.

    i only want this reboot to change her  origin once and for all........god i hate miller.... 
     
    i think with all the press she is getting its likely that she will have a solo or an important appearance in the comics......she is too popular to just drop and forget....

    Apparently Cameron Stewart is working on some batcat panels for a book yet to be announced. I'm really hoping we get a bat cat book written like Inc#1

    Yeah that picture pretty much gave me the biggest smile ever. I hope that is indicative of what will be happening for her after the reboot, cause I could totally get behind this comic. I can already tell it will probably be on my pull list.
