“Claws of the Catwoman!”

In "Claws of the Catwoman!", the feline felon escapes her cell with a twist—her crimes are inspired by legendary tales of fictional cats, turning Gotham into a noir fable. Written by Bill Finger and brought to life with sharp, expressive art by Charles Paris, with lettering by Ira Schnapp, this 1947 classic sees Catwoman weaving a web of mischief drawn from myth and legend. The cover, by Jack Burnley and Charles Paris, captures her in a moment of sleek, feline menace.
