| Storyline |
Selina Kyle
resurfaced in Morocco after her "death." She'd spent the
previous three months and all her money to steal the Cup of Hassan, which
turned out to be a fake. Back in Gotham City, an associate named Swifty
set up a job for her. He introduced her to a girl named Chantel - Frank
Falcone's call girl. She'd heard about a money train with $24 million
going into Canada to pick up some heroin.
Selina met up with Stark, a man from her past, in Miami. He put the past
behind him and agreed on the job if he called the shots. They met one of
his men, Jeff, in Las Vegas. Afterwards, Selina headed back to deal with a
PI who'd been nosing around Swifty about her. Stark took care of his end
of the heist - the weapons. Selina and Jeff worked out the getting on and
off the train. Frank Falcone found out about Chantel and the heist.
The PI, Slam Bradley, burst in on Falcone's apartment. Chantel was dead,
and so was Falcone after the shootout. Word got out on the heist, the
Canadians found Swifty holed up in the cove awaiting the getaway.
Jeff, Stark, and Selina made it onto the train, dropped the loot into the
river, and parachuted out. Aboard the boat, Jeff was shot by the
Canadians. Swifty was already dead. The sea plane Slam Bradley had rented
swooped down and gave Stark and Selina cover to jump ship. Stark grabbed
onto the netting with one arm and Selina with the other. They got back on
the boat. He was shot by the Canadian and died killing his killer. With
everyone but her dead, Selina took the boat to the cove, where she found
Slam Bradley. When he told her he was taking her in, she shot him (flesh
wound) and told him why that couldn't happen - she had to take care of
Chantel's daughter and mother. |
