She engages in this with Batman during a cold opening, though with the intent of capturing and seducing him as a opposed to killing. Hunting the Most Dangerous Game: Played With.Every altercation between Batman and herself displays heavy amounts of mutual attraction and Unresolved Sexual Tension. Both of which are lower on the Batman's list of priorities. Her targets are also the rich and museums for the most part. Anti-Villain: Seen as such by Batman, who points out to Green Arrow she's a thief rather than the usual deranged killers and criminal masterminds he faces.She's based on them, likes using them, likes stealing cat-based objects in her crimes. Abhorrent Admirer: During "Death Race to Oblivion!", she gains the attention of Woozy Winks.Sitcom Arch-Nemesis: Unsurprisingly, his role in AQUAMAN's sitcom.īatman has never met another villain quite like the elusive and illustrious Catwoman, and not even a complex death trap can keep the two from friendly flirting.
