Trivia
- This issue marks the first appearance of the second Catwoman costume. This costume's mask is no longer a cat head, but instead a leather head piece with ear cats and large cut-out pieces for the eyes. This mask doesn't cover the entire face, leaving the mouth revealed and the costume by itself is a lot more revealing than the previous versions. However, the new costume is worn by a supporting character instead of Selina Kyle, the real Catwoman.
