The Kitten

The Kitten is a Golden Age heroine who debuted in Cat-Man Comics as a young sidekick-style character, later becoming associated with AC Comics' FemForce, a team showcasing heroic women alongside characters like Cat-Man and Ms. Victory.

Born in the thick of the Golden Age, The Kitten made her debut in Cat-Man Comics #11 in 1942, brought to life by creator Chas. M. Quinlan for what would become a surprisingly enduring corner of comics history. She's kept remarkable company over the decades — sharing pages with the likes of The Cat-Man, Ms. Victory, and Yankee Girl — and her strongest foothold in the catalog is FemForce, AC Comics' celebrated showcase for heroic women that has kept her relevant well into the modern era. With 43 appearances spanning an extraordinary 82 years and a key issue to her name, The Kitten is a genuine Golden Age survivor, the kind of character that serious collectors of vintage and independent comics love to discover and champion.
