I am Catwoman

I found another fun site to waste my time on. Luckily, this one only sucked up five minutes. After a short series of questions, Hero-Me determined which Superhero I was. Fun, eh? (I thought so!)

Catwoman is actually a pretty inspired choice. I’ve always been a bit of a fan. I even own Catwoman #1 (1993 series). It’s one of my prized possessions. It’s not particularly valuable, but I love the cover. I’ve sketched it a few times. Looking at it again now, I’m wondering why I haven’t ever coloured one of those sketches. A project for this week, maybe!

The appeal of Catwoman is obvious; she looks amazing in lycra! And those boots have got to be the stuff of fantasy. (It’s a good thing they have no heel, or I’d twist my ankle before I got to the cool stuff–you know, the athletic stuff.)

Looks aside, I love the character, though, particularly her depiction in the Batman comics. She’s more than a simple adversary. She tests, teases and toys with Bruce Wayne. She’s one of his most enduring love interests.

Catwoman has been played by some really amazing actresses, too. My favourite (which is not hard to guess) is the most recent. Anne Hathaway’s Catwoman compliments Christian Bale’s Batman perfectly, in my opinion. I also love what they did with her costume in The Dark Knight Rises. The flip up goggles that formed little ears are really cool and fit well with all the neat gadgets in Nolan’s Batman trilogy.

Before I wrap up this little post, I want to mention that the choice of Superhero at Hero-Me is apparently based on a short version of the The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) assessment. All the superheroes are detailed here. Their choice of Indicator for each Hero is pretty interesting, particularly as ENFJ (my result from a longer test) is Xavier, who happens to be another of my personal heroes.

Which Superhero are you?
