Biography[]
What motivates Catwoman? Not even she knows for certain. On the surface, she is a criminal, and the most talented thief in the entire world, willing to break any number of laws or bones to get what she wants. Conversely, she also been shown to have a caring side, and harnesses a deep connection to the downtrodden youth who inhabit Gotham City, whom she goes out of her way to aid whenever possible. The dichotomy of her virtuous and larcenous sides has bred great conflict in Selina's life, further complicating already strained relationships, particularly with the city's protector, Batman. Despite this however, Catwoman did receive an invitation to become a member of the Justice League of America. [1]
