LGBT Character of the Week: Catwoman
One of the more interesting occurances to come out of DC's One Year later was the retirement of Selina Kyle as Catwoman. She has been replaced by an on-and-off again prostitute come sidekick, Holly Robinson, first introduced by Frank Miller in Batman: Year One. Robinson is now in a steady lesbian relationship with her lover, Karon. Finally an end to Batman/Catwoman tragic affairs of yore.
Perhaps ,with all the characters in the DC universe coming out left and right, Batman can finally cop to his secret, yet forbidden, love for Jim Gordon and Dick Grayson. Well a Boy Blunder can dream can't he?
At the end of the day though, don't we all really wish it was Julie Newmar or Eartha Kitt? That would be purrrr-fect...

Yeah Selina's "retirement." Which has amounted to her putting on the catsuit in pretty much every issue since to go do something to rescue Holly or otherwise save people and/or the East End.
