Catwoman #70

The cover of Catwoman #70 (July 1999) delivers an instantly arresting image: Selina Kyle, in civilian clothes and clearly terrified, scrambles through a trash-strewn alley corner surrounded by cats while the enormous, clawed shadow of Catwoman looms menacingly over the brick wall behind her. The tagline "Catwoman Stalks Selina Kyle?!" sets up a deliciously unsettling identity-divided premise that writer Devin Grayson and Jim Balent — who both penciled and inked the cover — bring to vivid, tension-filled life. It's a striking visual concept for Part 5 of "I'll Take Manhattan," suggesting that Selina's two worlds have collided in the most personal way possible.
