Catwoman- When in Rome Continuity Breakdown
Catwoman: When in Rome is a spin-off of Batman: Dark Victory (Continuity). It follows Catwoman as she goes on a personal mission in Rome. Like Dark Victory, this also involves the pursuit of a complex mystery. Though this volume has plenty of direct connections to other comics, it still works as a somewhat independent Catwoman story.
This continuity breakdown is going to take a look at the references in Catwoman: When in Rome to other comics in the franchise. We’re looking at When in Rome‘s collected contents, what to read before reading When in Rome, and what to read after reading When in Rome.
What Comics Does Catwoman: When in Rome Collect?
Catwoman: When in Rome collects all six issues of the Catwoman: When in Rome series. This makes it a complete collection of the series and storyline.
The Catwoman: When in Rome Deluxe Edition collects the same main issues. However, it also collects a gallery of behind-the-scenes extras.
What to Read Before Catwoman: When in Rome?
Catwoman: When in Rome is a tie-in to Batman: Dark Victory (Continuity), which is a sequel to Batman: The Long Halloween (Continuity). In this way, it directly answers questions about what Catwoman did during the events of Dark Victory. Because of this, we recommend at least reading Dark Victory first. However, readers only interested in Catwoman can still read this book without reading anything else first.
What to Read After Catwoman: When in Rome?
The storyline in this comic takes place during the events of Batman: Dark Victory (Continuity). Catwoman’s story from this volume actually syncs with her story at the conclusion of Dark Victory. Because of this, if readers have not already read Dark Victory before reading this, we suggest they read it after.
