DC Comics Graphic Novel Collection #28
"Book One: Selina" presents a gripping early chapter in the noir world of Selina Kyle, drawn with precision and flair by Darwyn Cooke, whose distinctive art and storytelling bring the gritty streets of Gotham to life. As Slam Bradley follows a trail from Swifty's Pawn Shop to a deadly confrontation at the border, the mystery deepens with shadows of a high-stakes heist, a ruthless dealer, and a woman whose past remains tightly guarded. The cover by Darwyn Cooke captures the tension perfectly, setting the tone for a story where every clue leads deeper into danger.
In "Book One: Selina," Selina returns to Gotham after a failed job in Morocco, drawn back by the promise of a 24 million dollar haul tied to a heroin deal orchestrated by mob boss Frank Falcone. With help from her contact Swifty and a crucial lead from Falcone’s companion, Chantel, Selina sees the heist as her chance to make a move—but she knows she’ll need a team to pull it off.
In "Book Two: Stark," Selina tracks down her old mentor Stark in Miami, persuading him to join her on a high-stakes heist. As Chantel secures the train’s route and schedule, Selina grapples with the unsettling truth that Slam Bradley has been investigating her supposed death. Their plan unfolds in Vegas, where Stark introduces her to Jeff—whose ingenuity proves vital in boarding the train—while Falcone closes in on Chantel, who’s been spying on him.
In "Book Three: Slam," Slam Bradley digs into a tangled web when he spots Chantel near Swifty's Pawn Shop, setting off a chain of moves that leads him from a brutal ambush at Falcone’s hands to a high-stakes flight across the border. With Selina and Swifty still elusive, Slam races to uncover the truth behind a heist, a deadly dealer, and a train carrying more than just cargo—before someone else pays the price.
In "Book Four: Score," Selina, Stark, and Jeff make a high-stakes break aboard a moving train, stealing a fortune and fleeing with the help of Swifty—only for danger to follow on the water. As betrayal unfolds and the tide turns, Selina and Stark must outwit a relentless enemy while dodging deadly traps and shifting alliances.
