“Life isn’t without risk. You hear that bon mot a lot. But mostly around business. Or dating. Or eating fried food from street vendors. But we take risks all the time, every day, in a thousand ways. Driving a car. Talking to a stranger. Jay walking. Those are the little ones we don’t even think about. It’s the big ones that make it interesting. At least for me, it is.” — Catwoman in CATWOMAN #1

“Miles? Why, my beautiful girls…. You can see forever.”
— Apollo in WONDER WOMAN #1
