About this Collection

This collection kicks off the 2009 DC series centered on three of Batman's most formidable female foes—Catwoman, Harley Quinn, and Poison Ivy—as they form an uneasy alliance to navigate Gotham's criminal underworld while evading both the law and their own complicated pasts. Written by Paul Dini with art by Guillem March, the volume introduces their shared hideout and the fragile trust that binds them together against a city that fears and hunts them.

In "Union," Paul Dini and Guillem March deliver a tense, character-driven chapter in Gotham City Sirens, where Selina Kyle employs a subtle trick taught by Talia to keep Batman's identity hidden from Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy. When Harley rescues Bruce Wayne from kidnappers, she’s unaware she’s actually saving Thomas Elliot—setting the stage for a dangerous mix of deception and mistaken identity. The issue’s moody atmosphere and sharp writing are brought to life by March’s expressive art and Villarrubia’s evocative coloring, with cover by Guillem March.

In "Holiday Story," the Gotham City Sirens trade crime-fighting for seasonal traditions, each taking a different path through the holidays—Catwoman stays on the streets chasing thieves, Ivy escapes to the tropics for a much-needed break, and Harley Quinn heads back home to reconnect with her family. A quiet, character-driven moment in the Sirens' lives, this story captures their bonds and individual rhythms during a time of year that usually brings chaos to Gotham.
