History: Kitrina was the youngest daughter of infamous Gotham mobster Carmine “The Roman” Falcone. Her brother Mario Falcone put her to work in the family business, but after he tried to kill her she allied herself with Catwoman in pursuit of money and thrills.

Kitrina styled herself as Catwoman’s sidekick, and took the costumed identity of Catgirl.

(Batman I #704) - The feds offered a reward for Reaper’s capture, and Catgirl tried to apprehend him. She was almost killed before Batman and Robin intervened, and fled the heroes when they tried to talk with her. Kitrina accompanied Selina to a ball at Gotham’s Diamond District, and Dick Grayson tried to convince Selina that Kitrina would be better off without the madness of costumed adventuring. He even offered to help her return t school, but Selina told him he should know that at some point children are too damaged to have a normal life. Selina told Kitrina to stay far away from Grayson.

(Batman I #706) - Batman learned that Reaper had been pursuing his quarry Sensei when he took him in, so he asked Catgirl if she’d learned anything while trailing Reaper. Catgirl refused to talk to him, but Catwoman told her if she cooperated she’d send Batman on his way. Catgirl told Batman that Reaper was staking out the Sensei’s hideout, a butcher shop in Chinatown.
