THE CATWOMAN LIVE-ACTION TOUR

Batman has had many female villains over his 85 years being published.  Should you ask any comic book reader, or non-comic book reader, to name Batman's primary female villain, odds are quite high that their answer will be... Catwoman.  She's been around almost as long as the Caped Crusader himself.  As of 2024, there have been 11 actors who have portrayed Catwoman on television or in film.  On this tour, we will present each of these actors and look at the projects that they appeared in.

Grab your ticket, and jump on board!  Let the Catwoman tour commence!

THE "BEFORE DC COMICS PRESENTS" TOUR

In 1978 (the same year the Superman movie debuted), DC Comics began publication of a new title, DC Comics Presents.  This new title was dedicated to teaming Superman with other heroes each month.  After all, Batman had been enjoying this monthly team-up format since 1966 (the same year the Batman television show debuted) in the pages of The Brave and the Bold.  DC Comics Presents had an impressive 97-issue run, ending in 1986.  The cancellation was due to the events of the Crisis on Infinite Earths maxi-series that redefined the DC Universe. 

This was not Superman's first time being given a monthly team-up opportunity though!  Through most of its years in publication, World's Finest Comics served as a title that teamed Superman and Batman (and Robin) each month.  However, for a very short period from 1970 through 1972 World's Finest Comics served as a vehicle for Superman to team with other heroes instead. 

In this tour, we will look at Superman's monthly team-ups from before DC Comics Presents!

THE ORIGINAL JUSTICE SOCIETY MEMBERSHIP TOUR

The Justice Society of America holds the distinction of being the first superhero "group" or "team" ever published in comic books.  Their first appearance was in All-Star Comics #3 (January 1941).  The team's adventures were published through the end of the DC Golden Age, with their last adventure published in February 1951.   

When DC's Silver Age began in 1956, it wasn't long before the Justice Society made a grand return!  In this tour, we will look at all the Justice Society of America members from the team's debut through the publication of DC's Crisis on Infinite Earths maxi-series, which forever altered the Society's continuity.
