Under the Moon: A Catwoman Tale
Under the Moon: A Catwoman Tale | Lauren Myracle
25 posts | 32 read | 13 to read
When fifteen-year-old Selina Kyle, aka the future Catwoman, becomes homeless, she must confront questions of who she is and who she will become. She rejects human cruelty, but sometimes it seems as though brute force is the only way to "win." And if Selina is to survive on the streets, she must be tough. Can she find her humanity and reconcile toughness with her desire for community ... and love? From Lauren Myracle, the New York Times best-selling author of books like ttfn and ttyl, comes a new graphic novel that tells the story of a teenage Catwoman, as she struggles to find her own identity while living on the streets of Gotham.

Selina Kyle is fiercer than she knows. For 15 years, she's put up with her mother's string of bad boyfriends, but when Dernell, her mom's current beau, proves crueler than the others, Selina reevaluates her place in her home. There's no way Selina and Dernell can live under the same roof, and since Dernell won't leave, Selina must.

This is a good start. I like seeing Catgirl before she becomes Catwoman and seeing a different backstory. I like how they incorporated Bruce Wayne, and the entire aspect. I have rated this so low because the story is not finished. It feels like it ends halfway through and there is no mention of a sequel. Also, I thought this was going to be Middle grade, but it drops a few F bombs. I can see many MGs reading it and liking it.

This was almost a pick. But the story has a lot of loose ends. I needed some more clarity on what happened with the Villian etc. I did like the characters and the art. I love Catwoman and just wanted a little more.

I was looking for a fun, cute, light read...
What I got was a story so full of abuse and neglect it made me sick.
Combine that with the fact that this story doesn‘t really go anywhere; and you‘ve lost me.
I did enjoy the art though. The tree color art is something different and I think it works in the overall of the story.

I absolutely loved the artwork and the monotone look of this comic. 💚

This catwoman tale was a little dark, but I really liked it. Rosie was probably my favorite character.

This is a great book to read and the plot line was really good and fun. I love the background of how she became Catwoman.

I think my expectations for this graphic novel were high, as I was underwhelmed with how the story went. Catwoman‘s humble beginning was more casual here then I thought it would be. Though just as heartbreaking. Her personal growth she went though, to learn she can do anything, was a great turn around.

Nothing to see here, just Bruce Wayne, the son of two murder victims, who is so committed to the idea “no one dies” that he dresses up like a bat and regularly fails to kill the murderous Joker, casually offering to kill a man he doesn‘t know.

I love comics and graphics novels I also love the dcu ( d.c universe). So when I heard this book was coming out I was so excited. I had to wait a while for the book to my local book store but after a week of waiting they had some copies. I read the book I liked it so much I was able to finish it in the same day. I really liked this book.

If you can divorce this from anything you know about Batman, you may like it. If, like me, you are a mean pendant, you might spend the book wondering at the idea of upper crust Bruce Wayne, and child-of-a-waitress, Selina Kyle, attending the same public schools and after-school program. This story circles around issues of class and homeless, but doesn‘t ring true to me.

#currentlyreading Sorry I haven‘t been on here much. I have like reverse SAD ( seasonal affective disorder) I get much more depressed in the summer months. The amount of light really doesn‘t bother me. I prefer less light and colder temperatures. In the summer it feels like I am not getting enough oxygen to the point where my brain is fried and my speech is even slurred. Skyward vol 2 is overdue so I‘d better get reading. Thanks for your support❤️

Mimi28 Under the moon has a girl that doesn‘t speak and doesn‘t like to be touched. She reminds me sooo much of myself. It‘s really my only motivation to finish the book, lol 5y
Jennick2004 I‘m sorry love! 💜 5y
Mimi28 @Jennick2004 It‘s ok, thanks. I know it‘s a very #unpopularopinion to not like summer, lol. Thanks for the support ❤️❤️ I appreciate it! 5y

Read yesterday and though it has a juvenile tone, this makes sense given the age of Selena and that it is "the beginning." I would continue reading this one and see how it develops.

Eyelit Nice haul 😁 Please tell me more about this Buffy/Firefly crossover!! 5y
bookandcat @Eyelit turned out it was just a preview of two separate comics that are running (one for Firefly one for Buffy), I was bummed by the way it was promoted :-( that being said if you want a really fun comic crossover, Star Trek and Doctor Who once did one together 😂 5y
Clwojick What! 30/$10 is such a good deal! Mine only had 25%off 5y

I'm not big on graphic novels, but my store received this ARC so I snagged it to cross off the #graphicnovel prompt for the #booked19 challenge. It's a cute origin story of Catwoman for a younger audience. Available 5/7/19

@Cinfhen @4thhouseontheleft @BarbaraTheBibliophage

Cinfhen I‘m with you on the GN genre...but a free ARC isn‘t a bad way to go!! 5y
cassareada @Cinfhen I'm glad I'm not alone on that. I'm going to bring it back to work so another booksellerq can read it too. 5y

Received this arc today. Great graphic novel of when Selina Kyle was 14, abused, was high school friends with Bruce Wayne and ran away. Great artwork throughout. 4 stars.
