Hero Of The Week- The Bat & The Cat: Gotham’s on-again, off-again power couple took first and second place this week, with three appearances a piece. However, Batman would overshadow Catwoman with 26 appearances to her 21.

Book Of The Week- Unsurprisingly, the 145 page Detective Comics #1027 was the Book of the Week, with 135 points accrued by 47 characters. It’s a little disappointing it didn’t match the page count, eh?

Antagonist Of The Week- The Last Laugh: The Joker and Harley Quinn each had three appearances this week, but it’s the Clown Prince of Crime who triumps over his former flame. The Joker scored 16 points over Harley’s 10.

Statistical Notes- 3 new Heroes and 5 new Antagonists Added.

Batman remains the Top Hero, widening the gap between himself (160) and Wonder Woman (117) considerably.

Harley Quinn remains the Top Antagonist with 85 points, safely keeping The Joker out at sea (53).

Key: TU – Team-Up; LT – Lead Team; SC – Save Civilian; CD – Character Development; DA – Defeat Antagonist.
