>Also replying on X, Absolute Batman writer and Absolute showrunner Scott Snyder replied, "Appreciated. Folks at DC did catch this the other day and had let us know all cover colors are already adjusted or are in process of being adjusted… It is actually the skin tone that has been used for her most often, but the flashbacks (where she has been seen) use a faded palette – So that skin tone would read light for present day w no overlay. So just a miscommunication – certainly no artist at fault – all good." So Selina Kyle in Absolute Batman is lighter than she may have appeared in the flashbacks, because of the flashback effect… but not quite that light. Either way, this is how that cover looks now… meeting them in the middle
