Sean Murphy said he is working on Catwoman: White Knight, a 48-page one-shot he plans to tackle next year. For readers tracking where his White Knight line goes after Batman, the move brings Selina Kyle into a corner of that world that had not used her yet.
During a League of Comic Geeks AMA in August, Murphy described the project this way: “Catwoman: White Knight” and “Is a 48 page one-shot I'll be working on next year. But it's not announced yet.:)” That is the clearest signal so far that the book exists as a specific format, not just a loose idea.
August AMA and White Knight
Sean Murphy’s White Knight books have built a recognizable alternate-universe lane around Batman and Gotham City lore, so a Catwoman entry fits the series logic without needing a reset. The new book also matters because Murphy’s White Knight title has not yet featured Selina Kyle, which makes this a first-time expansion rather than a repeat of existing ground.
That timing lands beside Murphy’s next chapter, which is currently untitled and will focus more on the Justice League. Sean Murphy out of Braves lineup again for Yankees series finale — Grant Holmes watching from the sideline? sits outside this comic-news thread, but the contrast is the point: one lane moves toward a broader team story while another returns to a single-character one-shot.
48-page White Knight one-shot
The 48-page length gives Catwoman: White Knight a contained shape. That usually means a tighter release strategy than a full ongoing series, with the story built to land in one issue-sized package instead of stretching across multiple installments.
Murphy’s line about working on it next year is the only timing he gave, so the practical takeaway is simple: the project is on his schedule, but not yet on the public board. Fans of Sean Murphy’s White Knight comics should treat this as a firm creative direction, not a finished launch plan.
Selina Kyle in Gotham City
Selina Kyle entering the White Knight world gives Murphy room to widen the cast without abandoning the continuity that made the line distinct. It is a clean addition for readers who follow Batman and Gotham City stories, because it adds a missing character to a setting already built around those names.
For now, the book’s best frame is as a short, self-contained Catwoman story inside White Knight rather than a wholesale shift in Murphy’s catalog. The next thing worth watching is whether the title moves from an AMA remark to an announcement, because that is the step that turns a plan into an actual release path.
