If you want mild spoilers on just what the hell is going on with Catwoman in The Dark Knight Rises, Batman-News.com has you covered. If not, stop reading, you zany so and so! Here's the meat of their article:
"Catwoman does some cool stuff in the movie like jumping out of windows and stealing the Batpod. Her back story is that she has a history of abuse and works as a stripper and is also a pickpocket."
So if you were scratching your head over the whole "Hey look, Catwoman is riding the Batpod!" scenario we've seen various shots of...wonder no longer. It makes perfect sense, really.
As well documented, you'll have to wait till July 20, 2012 when The Dark Knight Rises finally hits theaters to get the full Anne Hathaway Catwoman experience. Keep your eyes peeled for approximately 1 million updates and teasers in the meantime!

Some of these skins have yet to be announced for all territories, but I'm sure everyone will have a fair shot. I'm not sure how much interest the skins will really stir up (anticipation is high enough or the game already) but they're certainly interesting to see. I think they look quite awesome. The Dark Knight Returns and Animated Series skins are probably my favorite. What about yours?
If you have yet to secure your copy of Batman: Arkham City, or for some reason haven't even played Arkham Asylum, head to the Amazon listings below and get that in check!
Photos taken from the set of The Dark Knight Rises in Pittsburgh have given us a possible look at the Christopher Nolan version of famous Batman baddie Bane in full costume. So, what do you think? Are you full of rage over the mere sight of Bane in a coat, or has your level of excitement raised even higher? If you're not keen on it, keep in mind that there could always be several other variations to Bane's look over the course of film.
The above photo is but one of several recent on-set pics. They were taken at the Carnegie Mellon University Software Engineering Institute. I can't imagine this is how anyone involved with the film would have wanted the first full look at Bane to be revealed, especially given their ho-hum broad daylight nature, but this sort of thing is par for the course these days.
This news comes to the GeekSkull from IGN. Head on over to their article to check out the other on-set photos from the shooting of The Dark Knight Rises!
