Seven Catwoman 80th Anniversary 100-Page Super Spectacular Covers Unveiled

Article by Steve J. Ray

2019 was one of my favorite years as a comics fan, because my favorite character celebrated his 80th anniversary. 2020 may well match, or even surpass last year, as his sidekick (the original), his longest standing love-interest, and his greatest nemesis all celebrate that same milestone. As they did with Detective Comics #1000, DC Comics are celebrating these legendary characters with special issues of their own, and we’ve now been given seven out of the eight decades variant covers for the eagerly anticipated Catwoman 80th Anniversary 100-Page Super Spectacular!

Here’s the complete press release, direct from DC Comics:

In anticipation of the demand for these Catwoman variant covers on April 15th, we wanted to get these images to you as soon as they came in. Attached are seven of the eight tribute covers showcasing Catwoman through the decades! Jim Lee, Scott Williams, and Alex Sinclair’s 2000s variant cover will be released soon, along with final color for Frank Cho’s 1970s variant cover.
