Yeah, I know the headline reveals the outcome… but I just couldn’t resist!
The headline does sound awesome!
Will the scene be as awesome as well?
Check out this new scene from a very new TV show!

Ok, let’s start with the things I love about this one.
Catwoman does get unmasked by the police and they immediately recognize her!
That is indeed awesome!
It’s not a (forced) self-masking but she gets unmasked by someone else and her secret identity is ruined.
That is very thrilling for me and I did make several cuts of this scene incl. a 2-second cut of the actual unmasking 😉
I know that is an iconic Catwoman outfit from the comics and it fits the style of the TV show.
Of course, you can say that her costume is completely…. insane and “unrealistic”.
I mean she shows off 95% of her legs and is wearing high heels… maybe not the best choice for a cat burglar 😉
Very flashy and even more impractical.
I do like the look, but I prefer a Catwoman in a full black suit and cowl.
And speaking of cowl… here her mask is more like a helmet as it isn’t secured by a chin strap.
And I certainly do HATE that!
The unmasking itself is animated well enough, but there a quite some aspects that I didn’t like about it.
It’s Catwomans first encounter with Batman and she immediately gets unmasked and arrested?!?! Well, her crime career here is quite an epic fail 😆
And it’s not the only time she gets arrested in this episode with around 25 minutes of runtime 🙁
She gets unmasked while being tied up… also rather uncool for me.
But worst of all: There isn’t a real reaction from her!
She gets unmasked and arrested by the police! That will kill her criminal career very early on.
And she looks as if she would get a parking ticket with a mixture of “slightly annoyed” and “slightly bored”?
That totally killed the possible impact of the situation.
No….. “NO, don’t do that!” … no pleading or a try to escape that unmasking?
She just looks like “Ah well, it was worth a try… tomorrow I will do something else….”
That is all quite annoying for me.
A great scene…. 🙂
…and also a really bad scene 🙁
Have seen 4 episodes of the show so far.
So far so good, will finish it in the next days.
Hopefully, another masked woman will show up… but I’m not counting on it.

I totally agree with you on what is positive in this scene and what is negative. In a certain sense it is the unmasking that we expect (by the Police or in Public and she is recognized). But the unmasking too fast, too early, and no reaction from her. An unmasking so early is totally opposite to the comics where she is not unmasked before the “No Man’s Land” saga (and despite that her secret identity had not been discovered thanks to a stratagem, because she is not as well known as Bruce Wayne). There in this version her career only lasted a few days.
I hate it when the animated versions suggest that she does not have a secret identity, like in the Harley Queen series. In the same series we see that Harley knows Batgirl’s identity. But at what point did Batgirl get unmasked by Harley? Because officially Barbara has no connection with Bruce Wayne.
Yeah, I also hate it in general when you have masked characters where many or all people know who they are.
If I would be behind a movie or TV show, the secret identities would be much better protected.
And the only cool way to find out a secret identity is by (physically) unmasking the character. Not by talking, not by accident, not by self-unmasking.
