Title: Purple Tigress
Post by: Kevin Yong on March 04, 2011, 11:19:55 AM

Hi. I've been having fun tracking down stories of the more obscure "one shot" superheroes, and one that's really caught my attention is The Purple Tigress. I've read her appearance in the 1944 All Good Comics anthology by Fox (both the .cbz download (http://www.digitalcomicmuseum.com/index.php?dlid=5102) from here, and also a smaller but cleaner scan at the Golden Years Comic Library (http://members.fortunecity.com/srca1941/Spot5-Cov.html))

However, the Public Domain Superhero wiki (http://pdsh.wikia.com/wiki/Purple_Tigress) and the GCD (http://www.comics.org/character/name/purple%20tigress/sort/alpha/) list at least one additional appearance of the character, in the 1947 "Jo-Jo Comics #7a" (apparently a different printing from the version of #7 available here at the DCM (http://digitalcomicmuseum.com/index.php?cid=24) or at the GAC (http://goldenagecomics.co.uk//index.php?cid=1392) site.)  Does anyone know if this other Purple Tigress story is actually a "new" one, or if it's just a reprint of the one from All Good Comics?
