While no character on this show has an easy ride, Selina Kyle has well and truly been put through the ringer as of late. The future Catwoman was severely wounded by Jeremiah in the previous season's penultimate episode, when the maniac shot her for no reason other than to antagonise Bruce. Now that she's regained power in her legs, she's hellbent on revenge.

In the previous episode, Selina developed vicious characteristics - a side effect of Ivy's root cure, no doubt - which resulted in her turning on Bruce and handcuffing him to a railing to prevent the young millionaire from sabotaging her plan. In spite of Bruce breaking free, he was unable to stop Selina from embracing her dark side and murdering Jeremiah in cold blood.

Selina's no angel, but she's certainly crossed a line this time. Her newfound personality traits are proving to be a problem, but will the character be able to come to her senses before she goes down a dark, irredeemable path? With Bruce's help, it might just be possible.

In the meantime, she's either going to be distraught over what she did, or she'll have enjoyed the sensation of taking one's life. if it's the latter, then she has a big problem.
