One solicitation I didn't mention in Monday's post was another of DC's crossovers with the Looney Toons. Catwoman's going to get dragged into helping Sylvester, which is going to push Tweety to drag a bird-themed hero in as backup. Which is then going to escalate into a full cats vs. birds thing.
Given this is Gotham we're talking about, the bird-themed hero is probably Robin. Which Robin, I don't know. Hard to see Damian coming to the rescue of an annoying baby bird. But my first instinct, when I read 'bird-themed hero' was Hawkman. Or more accurately, it was , "Aw shit, not Hawkman. He's terrible."
Then I started wondering if Catwoman has ever tangled with Hawkman. An (extremely) brief Google search didn't turn up anything. Considering she likes to steal stuff, especially old rare stuff, and Hawkman is sometimes an archaeologist, and therefore works around a lot of old stuff, it seems like they would have crossed paths. Also Catwoman enjoys messing with Batman, because he's sometimes a gruff asshole, and annoying people like that is fun (see also: Deadpool and Cable). Hawkman is an even gruffer asshole, so tweaking him would possibly be pretty fun.
Of course, you catch Hawkman on the wrong day - or wrong incarnation - and instead of tossing a net over you, he's trying to cave your skull in with a mace. That might be a little too much risk for the payoff.
