Catwoman #56 Review

   

Writer: Tini Howard
Artist: Marcus To, Marco Santucci
Cover Price: $3.99
Release Date: June 20, 2023


I haven't reviewed Catwoman on our site in a while, but I am back!  The reason is simple - I am not so bright and was running out of synonyms for "terrible." Seriously, saying something sucks over and over might sound neat, but it will only get you so far in the cut-throat world of comic book reviews.  However, I saved up enough money and went out and bought a Thesaurus, and BOOM!  Now I can tell you all this book appalling, dismaying, and abominable!  Thank you, Roget, wherever you are!

It says it’s an extra-size spectacular on the cover, and it’s true - it has extra pages, and for the most part, it fails spectacularly. But hey, who would have thought any different from a celebration that only includes the writers of a failed run and the head-scratching pick who is replacing them?
