Instead he finds her, King tells EW.
So together they have to see if they can rebuild what they were so you can fight Bane.
Thats the ultimate journey, with the question that everyone wants to know:Can Batman be happy?
DC Comics
And is Batmans happiness a source of strength or weakness?
Together, this villainous gang has successfully cast Bruce out of his own city.
Broken, defeated, and exiled, Batman has no other option but to turn to Catwoman for help.

Batmans gone through something since [#50], King says.
She was seeing his fear that he doesnt love her.
So its them meeting with him sort of knowing this and him being like, Can I love you?

It sounds like corny romance comics, but I dont mind corny romance comics every once in a while.
King continues, When he turns to Catwoman, will that be a moment of strength or weakness?
Will that be a moment of triumph or conflict?

DC was kind enough to see that doing all that and a twice-monthlyBatmanwould be tough.
King continues, I used to thinkBatman#100 was the biggest book Id ever write.
Now itsBat/Cat#12.
Same issue, same artist, same impact, different nameslightly different.
It all begins with their reunion inBatman#75, on sale next month.
Stay tuned for more coverage of KingsBatmanand City of Bane at EW.
