Attached to the tweet was King's statement regarding Batman/Catwoman, as well as cover art from the upcoming series. King promises that this new 12-issue series is one that will be "ambitious, accessible, beautiful [and] thrilling." King also explains Batman/Catwoman, as well as his other post-Batman projects, are shaping up to be some of the "biggest" and "most ambitious" of his career.

Given just how much of a major change this seems to be for King, it makes sense that he would invoke the wisdom of Jack Kirby. After all, King is something of a torchbearer for Kirby, with his work on the award-winning Mister Miracle earning him widespread acclaim in the comics sphere for how it helped redefine the comics legend's New Gods.
