See the Cat Woman of Shanghai


I have a new favorite DC Nation short series. The Bat Man of Shanghai reimagines the world of Batman in 1930's China. This first short focused on Cat Woman and it was a stylized treat.

UPDATE:
Video embedded below


Cat Woman got to let loose with her trademark whip.



The short was light on story - if there was a story at all - but that's just fine. Story is what has bogged down the otherwise superb Sword of the Atom. 1-minute of awesome animation is just fine with me. 


The short also teased Bane, who will be the focus  of next weeks episode.




There are at least 3 of these Bat Man of Shanghai shorts planned with Bat Man himself appearing in two weeks from today. With the choice of characters, this is a great tie in to The Dark Knight Rises! I wonder if perhaps Ra's Al Ghul will make an appearance in episode 4?
