This week on Bros, Foes, and Heroes, Zach and Mike dive all the way back to Batman Issue 1 (DC Comics, 1940) to break down the first appearance and origin of Catwoman.

Set almost entirely aboard a luxury yacht, this Golden Age story features jewel theft, disguises, masquerade parties, fourth-wall-breaking lectures to children, and one of the most unintentionally unhinged Batman moments we’ve ever covered. From Robin undercover as a steward, to Batman winning a costume contest by not wearing a costume, to Catwoman flirting her way straight out of custody, this episode is packed with it all.

Story From: Batman Issue 1 (Spring 1940)

Writer: Bill Finger
