    Ed Brubaker's issues were great in her most recent run.  I really liked When in Rome too, by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale.

    To round out the suggestions, why not try Catfiles from her 90's series. It's by Chuck Dixon/Jim Balent. Selina's coerced by the govt to do some international espionage. It's fast paced and wacky fun! Awesome moment: she gets to eat a python!
     
    I also liked Wild Ride from Brubaker. Thelma and Louise style adventure outside of Gotham with an ending guaranteed to make you love her even more. Very upbeat unlike most of his other Catwoman books.
     
    Also, you might want to get in on Batman Inc. if you're not picking it up yet. She's there till Issue#3 and was written surprisingly well in #1.

    Long Halloween was great, just bought Dark Victory. Hush is on the Christmas List.
