(Lightning Comics 004, 1940)
Though Cats Romelt is the head of a gang of river pirates who organizes a fake warehouse guard union in order to call a general strike and leave the dock warehouses easy pickings, none of this is the reason for his being here. No, it is his sheer bloody-minded commitment to using starved alley cats with poisoned claws as weapons of terror and mass destruction that tipped him over into the category of super-villain. It's an idea that certainly works better on paper than in practice, but the real question is: is he constantly doing it because his nickname is "Cats" or is that his nickname because he breaks out a poison-clawed alley cat as the solution to any problem?
