Character:
This Catwoman action figure was released in 2006 by DC Direct as part of Batman: The Long Halloween Series 1. The figure is based on the famous comic by writer Jeph Loeb and artist Tim Sale, translating Sale's highly recognizable art style into a three-dimensional collectible.
Batman: The Long Halloween takes place during the early years of Batman's career. A mysterious serial killer, known as Holiday, murders someone connected to Gotham City's organized crime on every holiday. Batman, along with James Gordon and Harvey Dent, attempts to uncover the killer's identity.
Selina Kyle plays her own mysterious role throughout the story. As Catwoman, she moves between Batman and Gotham's underworld, showing a particular interest in Carmine Falcone and his crime syndicate. At the same time, the relationship between Selina Kyle and Bruce Wayne becomes increasingly important.
DC Direct based this version directly on Tim Sale's artwork. As a result, Catwoman has the long, stylized proportions and characteristic look that make her appearance in The Long Halloween so recognizable.
The figure comes with her signature whip and a display base. Together with Batman, The Joker, Two-Face, and Mad Hatter, Catwoman forms the original first series of action figures based on The Long Halloween.
For collectors of classic DC Direct figures, this is a particularly attractive Catwoman edition, especially when the original packaging is still in case-fresh condition after twenty years.
