Batwoman Vol.1 Hydrology

Art and story by JH Williams III and (secondary writer) W. Haden Blackman

The Other Side
Enter Kate Kane, a runner for hire / heroine of the underworld or voiceless populace of Gotham. Unknown to the topside city, she is a mysterious being that no one know unless in dire straights. Except a certain Dark Knight keeps a watchful eye over her actions depending on circumstances. Kate Kane is like no other that wields the Bat symbol, standing alone taking on evildoers in the shadows.

What makes her unique is her drive, past, present and future is her identity wrapped in mystery. Even GPD can't track her real ID, nor can the crime bosses tag her whereabouts. On top of that a mysterious entity is draining life force from the living and no one knows why.

Note: This is not a book for young eyes, its mature themed and contains a lot of graphic content. Very different aspects within this series really break it from the norm. Including the fact that Kate Kane is a lesbian (note - it is an aspect of her life only those closest know about her). Plus her father (a veteran) knows of her escapades, and it has to deal with her tragic past.

One thing is for certain, Batwoman will keep you glued to every page. don't miss it!
