When it comes to comic books, animal-themed characters make up a huge portion of the population, and I suspect that more than half of those end up being a cat-person of one stripe or another. Whether cat-powered like Tigra or cat-themed like Selina Kyle or even tangentially catified, like Soviet Super Soldier Sibercat, a ton of our favorite fictional folk emulate lions, tigers or even the common housecat. As such, it’s nearly impossible to decide who is the best of the best, so that’s exactly what we’re gonna do with today’s spade and neutered query…
The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) still loves the 70s Atlas Comics hero Tiger-Man, whose costume was mostly blue and who fought a fellow cat called The Blue Leopard, who didn’t wear much blue, asking: Which fictional feline feller or female is your fave-rave cat-person?

Tigra! Much WCA love here.
Second #1 vote for Tigra. Black Cat gets a silver medal. Third place goes to Felicia from Capcom’s Darkstalkers games.
The Cat from “Red Dwarf” and M’Ress from “Star Trek: The Animated Series”. But in terms of superhero catpeople, I’ll jump on the Tigra bandwagon.
I like your choices. Fish, fish, fish, fish is one of the favorite things!
I’d go with Lino-O from the Thundercats!
Tie Hepzebah and Cheetara
The first, the best, the one and only…Selina Kyle, CATWOMAN.
