The Super Dictionary

A Daily Dose of the 1970s in Action

"I came for the cakes. I stayed for the comments." – An Official Review from “Anonymous”

Catwoman: Crazy Cat Lady

She loves her cats so much that she is in denial when they die. I’ve got my eye on you, Selina. I’ve seen you dusting your stuffed former pets.

Tuesday, July 31, 2012

Selina has gone a little bit crazy.

Catwoman, I hate to tell you this…but I think those cats are already sleeping. The “big sleep” if you know what I mean. Otherwise, why would you need to dust them with a feather duster?

And with that, we have the perfect ending to the letter “D”. Come back tomorrow to join me in the adventures of the letter “E”! Who knows what fun we’ll find there.

Teeny tiny detailed docks, giant ugly close up fish.

That is some fishing line.

Is she fishing because she’s Catwoman? And cats like fish?

I’m waiting for Aquaman to come over and kick her ass for eating his subjects.

That is a disproportionate amount of dirt.

What was a dirty trick, Batman? Did Selina lure you in with a promise of a kiss and then fling dirt in your face like a tramp in the schoolyard?

Because that’s what it looks like.

And you should know better.

(Also, Selina apparently has quite the arm, flinging that much dirt so hard that she knocked Bruce over.)

Let’s make a deal!

(Sorry.)

(I’m not sorry.)

Selina does have a history of screwing you over, Dick. I don’t blame you for not wanting to cut a deal with her.

(Again, The Super Dictionary seems to renege on its previous Catwoman appearance where she looks like she might be a good guy and/or anti-hero and she is once again just a villain. Make up your mind!)

Is Catwoman a good guy now?

Catwoman, I think I see your problem. You totally would have gotten them if you hadn’t lunged in entirely the opposite direction. Cool sword though?

I can’t quite make sense of how she’s moving, either. So far as I can tell she’s going to fall over. Maybe that’s why it took a whole minute for all the men to make dashes. Catwoman fell on her face and gave them the opportunity to get away.

Though I do love the main dude running away. The 70s-est.

====

And so, we leave our hero (anti-hero? villain?) to fall on her ass as the 70s-est bad men get away. Come back tomorrow for more crazy adventures with The Super Dictionary!

I don’t know if your tiger really wants any milk, Selina.

That tiger’s face is saying, “GEEZ MOM, WE HAVE ENOUGH MILK AT HOME STOP FEEDING ME MILK I WANT TO FEAST ON THE FLESH OF THE WICKED AND THE DOG LOVERS.”

Also, something tells me that Selina steals crates of milk and butter from the dairy. I mean look at that inviting brick window. It’s just too easy. Not that we have much use for visiting individual dairies these days. Farm fresh milk is all well and good, but the grocery store is just so much easier.

(Before I was thinking that maybe The Super Dictionary had it wrong, but did Selina just ride tigers around in the 1970s? Because that’s a little strange, and it keeps happening in this book.)

Again with the cat abuse!

This book is very bad at getting Catwoman’s character right. She doesn’t just go hang out with them in their cages or put them in circuses, and she definitely wouldn’t ride a tiger.

(I would though.)

Okay, I see. That’s what Catwoman was doing in that tiger’s cage. She was getting ready to free them. I guess there were some normal tigers in there with the white tigers.

Saturday, June 16, 2012

It’s been a while since we’ve actually seen Selina.

I almost forgot that this was the costume she was in.

Are you planning to free the big cats from their cage? Or are you just there to chill out with them?

It sounds like you’re going to leave them there, which seems strange.

Catwoman, that’s no way for a lady to act!

In my head, Catwoman just barged into their secret clubhouse completely deranged and started chasing Robin around their fancy meeting table with her club while Batman, Canary, and Arrow all sat there laughing at the silliness.

I do like that apparently they didn’t let Wonder Woman into their club, so she huffily went off and joined a bunch of other clubs.
