Catwoman - evil or funny

Post by WayneGrayson »

I remember a poll in which all were asked to choose between Catwoman being evil or having a crush on Batman. I'd also like to know which you would choose if caught between EVIL Catwoman (Purrfect Crime and parts of Hot off the Griddle) or FUNNY Catwoman (the rest of the Julie Newmars).

I guess it depends on your purrsuasion (I am so dead for that one... :oops: ).
Seriously, it's an impossible choice for me - after all, even when she's being funny you never forget she can turn evil on a dime, without remorse ("Robin? We'll kill him" as casual as flicking a mosquito!). After all, isn't that the nature of a cat?

I never regarded her as funny; she came across as more flippant to me. And like chrisbcritter said, she could turn on a dime and be nasty.

She did have the one-liner when the Duo was going to be fried by the giant magnifying glasses: Robin says "Holy oleo," whereby Catwoman responds, "I didn't know you could yodel."
