I thought this was very well put-together, lots of nice suspense, good moments that weren't too heavily explained. Dating Catwoman is going well for both of them I see XD And I love that Selina is just as quick on the explaining away as Bruce is. as for Steph and Carrie, we're all glad she left that War Games file alone! Absolutely looking forward to Carrie's finally meeting with Ra's.

Nice new story arc. Carrie is still coming into her own, as is Catwoman in her own way. Basil Karlo makes for an interesting adversary (although i'm more partial to actual shapeshifters than masters of disguise) and i'd love to see why Selina is the target and how this whole story plays out.

Once again James, I thought you did a great job with this issue, building from the last arc and sending us on another great adventure. Just lost the original version of this point when my browser crashed, the second version never quite comes out right, but still, hopefully the comments are appreciated.
I really like using this version of Clayface, it's great the way you continue to pull from all sorts of influences and eras in building your version of the Batman mythos, and while I like the shapeshifter versions, I think this one gives you as many story possibilities if not more since it forces you to be a lot more creative with what you have to do with him. I look forward to seeing this progress.
Also, I thought the awaited first contact between Batman and Catwoman came off really well, they've got a real spark to their banter and I thought you handled the confrontation very well, as well. It would be tricky to let Catwoman escape without making Batman look stupid or foolish in the first sequence, and I think you accomplished that here.
The fact that Batman has now been photographed in the aftermath of the last arc should provide you with a lot of possibilities, it will be a lot of fun to see where you go from here with that, and what his relationship with the city will ultimately be. Also tying in from the last issue, we meet at least one of the new recruits that Derek Powers has managed to slip into the WayneTech staff on behalf of his mysterious partner. I can wait to see how that resolves itself.
Nice little touch there with Steph and the War Games reference, always like those little winks and nods to DC continuity. Little surprised that Steph was able to get around the security if it was in fact created by Oracle, but it's also great to see Alfred once again serving as the voice of reason - can't wait to see how the meeting between the two goes.
The interactions with Selina and Bruce were a lot of fun as well. Surprising to find out she's the target of Karlo's employer, curious to see what comes of that and what it means for both Catwoman and Batman.
Once again, a great job James, you're really building up to something special here and I can't wait to see it come to fruition.

It was, again, areally good issue. Clayface being a hired killer is a good idea. I like this version much better than the walking clay guy in the comics. I hope you keep him that way.
Bruce should at least have been suspicious about Selinas hurt leg. Sometimes it's funny, that the people who use the same tactics often don't recognise them when somebody else uses them.
Good beginning of the new story arc. I look forward to the next issue.
