    In your list I'd say the best interpretation of the character is from the Dark Knight Rises followed by Arkham City.

    But the best Catwoman of all time has to be from Cooke and Brubaker's run

    Of your list, Batman Returns. Of all time, Gotham City Sirens. Fantastic series, one of the last good things Dini ever wrote. (Perhaps THE last)

    Looks very Bruce Timm-esque

    Arkham City? no?

    @ganon15: The Arkham games aren't bad, but they are mediocre, mindless beat 'em ups with voice acting that doesn't fit the EXTREMELY OOC characters (With the exceptions of The Joker, Scarecrow, Batman, Zsaz and Killer Croc)

    I thought Maurice LaMarche did a decent job as Mr. Freeze

    They made him too evil, as they did for most of the villains.

    He seemed no more evil than his BTAS counterpart, that Mr.Freeze actually killed people

    @ganon15: Yeah, that's why I love it lol. The characterization of Selina is amazing as well and oddly the cartoonish style is a nice juxtaposition with the mature and dark story it's telling. This run is not so much underrated as it is not being promoted enough by DC or exposed to fans of comics in general. This catwoman series was fantastic and perfectly fused the genre's of gritty crime noir and superheroics.

    If they ever adapted Selina's Big Score on the silver screen I'd watch it in a heartbeat lol

    I'm still waiting on it, although her depiction in Superman and Batman's ongoing was fun.

    Brubaker's Catwoman is hands down the best, but from the items on the list, I picked DCAU Catwoman. Which would be followed by '66 Catwoman (Julie Newmar, ftw), then Brave & the Bold Catwoman, then TDKR.
