Catwoman is a fictional character associated with DC Comics' Batman franchise. The anti-heroine was created by Bill Finger and Bob Kane, partially inspired by Kane's second cousin by marriage, Ruth Steel
The original and most widely known Catwoman, Selina Kyle, first appears in Batman #1 (Spring 1940) in which she is known as The Cat. She is not an adversary of Batman, as such, but is known for having a love-hate relationship with him. In her first appearance, she was a whip-carrying burglar with a taste for high-stake thefts. For many years Catwoman thrived, but from September 1954 to November 1966 she took an extended hiatus due to the newly developing Comics Code Authority in 1954. These issues involved the rules regarding the development and portrayal of female characters that were in violation with the Comic Code.

Adam West was hard the entire day of shooting.
Catwoman was portrayed by Julie Newmar in 12 episodes of the live-action Batman television series of the 1960s, her first portrayal in a medium outside comic books. Eartha Kitt replaced her in Catwoman's final three episodes, with Lee Meriwether substituting for her in the 1966 motion picture, after producers learned that Newmar was unavailable. An uncredited fourth actress played Catwoman as part of a cameo villain team-up in "The Entrancing Dr. Cassandra", the penultimate episode of the series.

In 2004,
Catwoman, a movie starring Halle Berry, was released. This film's Catwoman bore little resemblance to the comic book version, serving as the only protagonist in the film.
