Gotham Central 26 & 27


Catwoman!


New artist for this arc, name's Jason Alexander. Everything's cool except the faces of guys . Ouch. Drawn like they have some kind of allergy that makes them all blotchy.

Nice stylized shot of CGPD HQ with starry backdrop issue 26 page 11 first panel. The inking for this issue is manages to be both heavy and delicate at the same time.

Cemetery scene on issue 26 page 18. Done so good you could actually feel the frost.

Catwoman appearance at the end of 26. This scene is another solid proof that the supertypes look really good against the backdrop of a series about real people like Gotham Central.

Gotham Central's storyline was probably structured across story arcs since a particular angle to Josie MacDonald in this issue was foreshadowed way back in 'Daydreams and Believers' when Stacy noted she could keep finding her mug no matter where the other detectives put it. This kind of planning, presumably by Brubacker and Rucka, only ups the quality ante.

The exchange deal between Josie and Simon, considering the constraints around both of them, is very creatively done.

I've never seen a bondage club portrayed in a comic until now.
