Batman Returns remains one of the best Batman big-screen adaptations. A classic superhero tale, the film's story explores themes of identity and sexual liberation through the character of Catwoman. Michelle Pfeiffer's take on the feline antihero is still one of the best comic book performances, mixing elements of tragedy and camp to create an unforgettable character.

Black Cat was actually intended to be a villain for Spider-Woman rather than Spider-Man. Marv Wolfman was writing the Spider-Woman title in 1979, starring Jessica Drew, one of the best alternate versions of Spider-Woman. Black Cat was meant to appear in that book, but then Wolfman left and transferred over to The Amazing Spider-Man, making her first appearance in issue #194.
