    “I’m the best thief in the world and I spent the better part of my professional life in love with the world’s best crimefighter. I’ve got a pretty good handle on cognitive dissonance.” -Selina Kyle, Inside an Enigma

    "Alfred performed the swift and silent maneuver the Gotham underworld called a “Bat-exit,” but which Alfred himself considered a tactful withdrawal such as any butler knows to execute at such moments in the interests of discretion, diplomacy, and common sense."

    Theirs was a love forged in the fires of adversity, a troubled man with a mysterious past, a beautiful doctor who swore never to love again (Thanks to Professor Schnieder and his fricken C+, Thanks for nothing, Jerk). United by fate, they would stand alone against a Dark Terror from beneath the city.  Theirs was a love that would stand the test of time, it was… A Time to Laugh (From Cat-Tales: Fool)

Cat-Tales is the real story, a Catwoman metafiction series by Chris Dee. Let’s say nearly everything you’ve ever read in a comic book is wrong. The identities are correct: Bruce Wayne is Batman, Selina Kyle is Catwoman. They live in Gotham City. There is a Wayne Manor, a Batcave and Batsignal, etc. But the rest is all exaggeration, distortion, and often the outright lies of a sensationalist tabloid called The Gotham Post, otherwise known as DC Comics. Cat-Tales tells the truth behind that fiction, revealing characters that are more complex and fully-human than anyone thought possible. Heart-stopping romance, side-splitting humor, and poignantly understated tragedy, it’s all here: the man inside the Bat, the woman within the Cat, the life between the panels, the truth behind the masks. * * * * * *

Chris Dee is an award-winning playwright, entertainment consultant, and metafiction author who brings real life experience to her storyverse, fusing it with unimagined truth and depth.

She is a woman who has squatted down next to a 500-lb Bengal tiger and petted its fur.  She has held an ocelot in her arms and allowed it to ‘groom’ her forearm.  She has spent the night in a cabin with two rambunctious caracals.  She studied art in Florence, Italy, worked in a museum and walked through its galleries after closing.  She knows the difference between Picasso and Pissarro, Manet and Monet.  She has been inside Cartier.  She has been inside a corporate board room.  She has been on a yacht and in a private plane. 

The life experience Chris Dee brings to these tales brings a depth to the characters unseen in any previous incarnations.

“Ten times the love and respect for the characters than the authors of the official comics… More emotion and charm than most novels on the bestseller list.”
