Pinky

Pinky is one half of the iconic animated duo from Warner Bros., a good-natured but dim-witted lab mouse who pairs with the scheming Brain in their endless quest for world domination, adapted into DC/WB comics continuity.

Debuting in 1995's Superman & Batman Magazine #8, courtesy of Roger Stern and Ty Templeton, Pinky is a DC character who emerged right at the cusp of the Modern Age with an entertainingly eclectic comic footprint. With appearances spanning Pinky and the Brain, Justice League America, and the Batman Beyond Special Origin Issue, this character has kept some remarkably distinguished company — sharing pages with the likes of Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, and even the Warner siblings Yakko and Wakko. Seven catalog appearances may sound modest, but two of them carry key-issue recognition, making Pinky a genuinely collectible find for fans who love the quirky, cross-promotional corners of the DC universe. A small presence with an outsized charm — exactly the kind of discovery that makes digging through back issues so rewarding.
