Pussy Katnip

Feline singer and owner of the Katnip Kafe that appeared randomly as a back-up feature in random Fox Feature Syndicate comic books from 1944 to 1946. An interesting but unsuccessful attempt to combine funny animal comics, superhero comics, and crime comics. Ms. Katnip frequently butted heads with local small-time hoodlums Boss and Mugsy. At which point she would drink her secret family recipe "Katnip Fizz" which gave her super-fury and a extra clear and intelligent head. But somehow, not a costume. Also, the series is poorly drawn, and her character design is off-putting.
