It's been a while since I've had one of these posts, and I'm not sure when I'll have another one (though hopefully it won't be too long), but I've got a book on the shelves this week, the final collection of my run on Catwoman.
CATWOMAN: THE LONG ROAD HOME collects issues 78 to 82, which includes her return from the badguy planet of SALVATION RUN, her final beat-down of The Thief and, last but not least, a heart-to-heart talk with the man in the Bat suit.
Art is by the stellar team of David Lopez (pencils) and Alvaro Lopez (inks), colors are courtesy of Jeromy Cox, letters are by Jared K. Fletcher and the original covers (included here, natch) are by the master himself, Adam Hughes. Nachie Castro was the editor who guided this book from concept to comic, and if you want to see a glimpse of him and me, we're the two couch potatoes on page 112.
Pick it up -- it's good stuff, if I do say so myself.

Hi, Will, I'm a graduate student at the University of Florida and I'm writing a thesis on advertisments in comics. I have a question regarding an issue of Catwoman (#73), and I was hoping you could clear it up for me. Thanks in advance!
Hey Will, just a fan dropping a note to let you know you are missed in the funny pages! Any chance of seeing anything from you any time in the not too distant future?
Kris with a... Sorry I didn't reply sooner, Kris. What's the question? I'll do my best to answer it.
OBrian -- Nothing definite yet, but a couple of things in the works. If they get the OK, I'll let you know. Thanks for asking!
Will- In issue 73, Selina steals a pair of Chuck Taylors (Flames, i think is the model name. With Converse listed as one of DC's "marketing partners", was that something you were asked/encouraged to do or was it just something that came naturally out of the creative process? Would you consider that a product placement?
Kris -- I assure you, the Converse theft was just something I stuck in the script. As a 20-plus-year wearer of Converse All-Stars, it was something I put in for my own pleasure. I didn't even know DC had that marketing agreement.
