Not sure. I somehow expect their comics weren’t renewed due to obscurity though.

TNT Tina is TNT Tom's cousin. The strip's title was TNT Tom and appeared in Gerald G Swan comics in the 1950's. Tina appears to always be referred to as simply Tina. If you fancy a look at some stories, my compilation can be found on CB+, here:-

At the moment, these seem to be the only strips found and scanned.
De Kat was a Dutch "beeldroman/beeldverhaal" a tiny wee comic about 10 1/2 x 7 centimetres with often 1 illo per page, from the late '40's. Drawn by Henk Albers. De Kat was resurrected in the last few years in a bigger format, but a lot more adult content. Lambiek has an interesting read on beeldromans:-

Nice! Thanks for that info!

Great list! Two more, very obscure heroines come to mind;
I see you mentioned Doll Girl, but before Martha Roberts assumed that identity in Feature Comics #37, she also assumed the identity of "Midge" in Feature Comics #27.
Also, I can't remember the character's name or the issue she appeared in, but in a Mr. Scarlet and Pinky adventure, Brian Butler's girlfriend has started a boarding house and has also taken in a teenage girl orphaned due to the war. A mystery ensues, and when Mr. Scarlet and Pinky investigate, that teenage girl makes a similar costume to help out. She's never given a super hero name, so she's only known by her real name (which I can't remember).

Miss Scarlet (tho not called that in the story) aided Mr. Scarlet & Pinky in Wow Comics # 57 (Aug 1947). Her real name was Abigail.
