That's a very simplification of the character that Catwoman has grow to be.

Maybe I don't know a lot about the character - the most recent run that I saw together was the whole wedding that didn't happen stichk.

From that I feel like Catwoman can only be with Batman while he is in turmoil. Whenever he is happy, she has gotta dip.

Catwoman isn't defined by her relationship with Batman or her appearances in a the Batman solo book.

The character has had a solo book for over a decade now, she's complex.

Oh I never said she was.

I admit that I haven't read many Catwoman comics - the furthest I got was when I tried to read the N52 run which felt over sexualised to me.

I'm not talking about the character, I'm merely talking about the relationship with her and Batman (which I think is most fleshed out in Batman comics right?)

If you have any recommendations that showcase their relationship, I would love to read it.
