That would have made me furious!!<BR/><BR/>Your comment made me smile because I feel so similarly.Heidi Meeleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01436991028382498324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7747146.post-67480471087995976592007-10-26T15:52:00.000-07:002007-10-26T15:52:00.000-07:00Yeah, CW #72 broke my heart, too, especially due t...Yeah, <EM>CW</EM> #72 broke my heart, too, especially due to the care that the artist has been taking to provide Helena with "realistic" facial expressions and reactions since she showed up OYL. <BR/><BR/>On the meta/big picture side, though, my emotions were undercut somewhat because I could kind of see this coming, and the baby was being deployed as a plot complication that needed to be resolved somehow down the line ...<BR/><BR/>My feeling is that it would have been worthwhile to see Selina be both a (good) mother <EM>and</EM> Catwoman. Since the DC folks made the decision for her to have a child, I think they should have followed through with the concept and allowed us to read stories about a smart, talented, modern woman doing her job (kicking evil doers' asses) and raising her daughter, too.Melchior del DariƩnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11710950972039068797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7747146.post-77360770457163857942007-10-22T20:08:00.000-07:002007-10-22T20:08:00.000-07:00Nick, I have to agree.

A story that can get me this worked up has to be at least partially because of the excellent execution of it! <BR/><BR/>My heart aches for Selina, as giving up a child would be the hardest thing I could ever think of doing. Was it right? Probably. Do I like it. Nope.<BR/><BR/>Great writing and great art.
