Tigress

Tigress is a Platinum Age DC villain who debuted in the historic Action Comics #1 alongside Superman. She appeared as an adversary in the pages of that landmark 1938 issue, making her one of the earliest characters in DC's publishing history.

Few characters can claim a debut as historic as Tigress, who first prowled the pages of Action Comics #1 in 1938 — the very same legendary issue that introduced Superman to the world, making her a true Platinum Age original from one of comics' most consequential single publications. Created by the iconic duo of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, she's a genuine piece of DC's foundational DNA, sharing those hallowed early pages with Superman, Zatara, and Tex Thomson. With two key-issue appearances to her name and a presence that stretches across an astonishing 88 years of publishing history, Tigress is the kind of deep-cut discovery that reminds collectors just how rich and layered the very origins of the American comic book truly are.
