"Pops" Heathcliff

"Pops" Heathcliff is a supporting character in Marvel's humor comic based on the animated cat Heathcliff, associated with the Nutmeg family household that includes Grandpa, Grandma, Iggy, and Sonja alongside the mischievous orange tabby himself.

A familiar face in the cozy world of Marvel's Heathcliff comics, "Pops" Heathcliff made his debut in 1985 during the Bronze Age, brought to life by Angelo De Cesare and Warren Kremer. With just six appearances to his name, he's a rare find for collectors who love the lighter, humor-driven side of Marvel's Bronze Age output. He keeps warm company with the whole Nutmeg clan — Grandpa, Grandma, Iggy, and Sonja — as well as the irrepressible Heathcliff himself across titles like Heathcliff and Heathcliff Smooth Sailing. A charming supporting player in a beloved funny-animal corner of the Marvel universe, "Pops" is exactly the kind of gem that makes digging through Bronze Age back issues so rewarding.
