Character:
Catwoman
Costume:
Black, PVC top and bikini bottoms, knee high boots, cat mask.
Skills used:
Whips, scratching.
Execution:
After a series of stretches from behind an orange and yellow screen, Catwoman peeked outside of her cat house, shimmying up and down the pole, until she landed on the roof, where she poured a rhinestone encrusted bowl of milk all over herself. Catwoman stayed in character after the performance when she began scratching a random audience member.

Just in time for Comic-Con, Devil's Playground's July 11 burlesque show featured heroines and villains of the comic book world like Catwoman, the Joker, Wonder Woman, Poison Ivy, Vampirella and Sheena, Queen of the Jungle. As with Video Game Girls, this event combined geeky with exotic. See how the vixens ranked by costume, skills used and execution. Words by Liz Ohanesian.
