Batman/Tarzan: Claws of The Cat-Woman #4

Batman/Tarzan: Claws of The Cat-Woman was a four-issue limited series published in 1999 as a crossover between DC Comics and Dark Horse Comics. The project brought together two iconic pulp-inspired heroes to face off against a collaborative threat, set during a period when crossover events were a frequent hallmark of comic book publishing. The story was written by Ron Marz and featured artwork by Igor Kordey, who utilized a distinct, gritty aesthetic intended to evoke the atmosphere of 1930s pulp serials and classic detective fiction.

The series served as a thematic homage to the roots of both characters, leaning heavily into their shared origins in adventure and vigilante archetypes. Kordey’s visual approach departed from the house style of mainstream DC titles at the time, opting for a textured and sometimes unconventional look that aimed to distinguish the project from contemporary superhero comics. While the series was received as a niche curiosity for fans of both franchises, it remains noted for its attempt to reconcile the distinct tones of Gotham City and the African jungle within a singular historical narrative.
