Tigra Omnibus type book

[bretmaverick2]

Just read on another website that Marvel is gonna release a Tigra volume in December. It’s gonna include Greer Nelson’s original appearances from CLAWS OF THE CAT. Can’t lie, I am gonna be ‘in’ for this! I have been a fan of Tigra for a long time. Although, not wild about her romance and kid with Pym.

But I am looking forward to this!

This was probably the biggest surprise I've seen in a while. Happy about it but very shocked.

I missed the announcement but supposedly this is due to an upcoming Disney+ series ‘Tigra and Dazzler’.

Hulu, not Disney+, but yeah, I'm sure it's related.

Those old Claws stories were very good. I have not read them in many, many years. I wish they would have kept Greer as the Cat for 4-5 years longer than they did before transforming her into Tigra. I wanted to see more Cat action!

I wonder what other stories will be included in the Omnibus?

Marvel’s feline fury is on the prowl! Before Greer Grant Nelson became Tigra, she was the Cat – a costumed hero taking on foes like the Owl and the Man-Bull. But an encounter with the mystical Cat People soon unlocked her full potential – and Greer became Tigra, the Were-Woman! Transformed into a feline fighting force, Tigra soon made her mark on the Marvel Universe – clashing with Werewolf By Night, Kraven the Hunter, Red Wolf and more, and leaping into action alongside the Thing and Spider-Man! Plus, join Tigra on the trail of a killer in a moody crime drama illustrated by Mike Deodato Jr.!

And this is the difference between Marvel & DC.

Marvel will toss out stuff like for almost whoever is in a movie or tv show. In order to get a book on shelf in case anyone wants to read about that character.

Dc will give you excuses or not bother as we seen with Vixen and others.

That's quite the collection -- and spanning quite the range of her career! Most of it is her early solo material (which is fantastic to have all collected in one handy volume), but that Tigra miniseries is from the early 2000s.

This is great news for Tigra fans!

[Digifiend]

I wonder if Dazzler will get something too, since they're doing this because of their Hulu show. She had quite a long running solo back in the day.

at what point did she gain a tail?

[Phoenixx9]

at what point did she gain a tail?

Years ago real time now. It was after Greer had her Cat-Soul removed and then re-merged while Greer wore Patsy Walker's Hellcat costume. Greer became faster, stronger, more powerful overall and could change back to human form, if she wished. She also grew a tail had had more stripes.

This is a thicker TPB than right? Like the ones for Frankenstein, Machine Man, Son of Satan or the upcoming Speedball.

Yes, Tigra is thicc alright

[kcekada]

While I would have preferred a Cat/Tigra Masterworks, I am very psyched about this. Cat definitely had potential, but the creative team changed from issue to issue. Also the first issue benefited from having Roy Thomas co-plot the story. Linda Fite didn't have the chops to continue on her own. But I loved the concept of the Cat. As fun as Hellcat is/was, she was a very watered-down version of the Cat.

Pretty sure I have all the issues mentioned above(digifiend's post), as I was a big Cat and then Tigra fan, until she became all 'sex-kittenish,' but it'd be really nice to have everything all in one volume as might be the case. Didn't see it in the previews though--did I miss that?
