Chuck Katt

Chuck Katt is an anthropomorphic cat character from Reed Waller's underground comics world, first appearing in Bizarre Sex #9. He became a supporting figure in the adult drama Omaha the Cat Dancer, moving through the lives of characters like Omaha and Jerry Davidson.

Reed Waller introduced Chuck Katt to the world in the pages of Bizarre Sex #9 in 1981, making this feline figure a genuine Bronze Age original from the beloved underground and alternative comics scene at Kitchen Sink Press. Over a remarkable span stretching more than three decades, Chuck Katt kept lively company with Omaha the Cat Dancer, Jerry Davidson, Joanne Follett, Rob Shaw, and Shelly Hine across the pages of Omaha the Cat Dancer, Critters, and Kitchen Sink Classics — a roster that places this character squarely at the heart of one of the most acclaimed and mature-readers-oriented runs in independent comics history. Fourteen catalog appearances may sound modest, but in the intimate, character-rich world that Waller built, every recurring face carries real weight and personality. For collectors who treasure the thoughtful, boundary-pushing alternative comics of the era, Chuck Katt is exactly the kind of supporting presence that rewards a deeper dive.
