Question I'd like to put to y'all fellow fans:
Comparisons to Catwoman always seem inevitable, no matter how unfounded they may or may not be. With that in mind, would you tweak Felicia's character to set her apart from Selina Kyle, and if so, what would you change? Would it be to do with her look, or her personality? Vocation? Etc

This is a hard question for me to answer because I think some of the traits that are similar to Selina are so inherently a part of Felicia's character that tweaking or removing them would make her into somebody she's not.
Like, it's hard for me to imagine Felicia as anything but a sexy cat burglar in black leather who has the hots for a hero. Those are important elements of the character in my opinion (even the black leather part :P).
I guess you could make her a PI again (even though that's now pretty much Jessica Jones' thing) although for the most part I think people would find that lacking compared to seeing Felicia in her niche, which is pulling heists.
Visually I think they're very distinctive though.
Wouldn't disagree at all, though I do like the costume redesign by... can't think of his name right now, on the tip of my tongue - the one with the black leather and goggles in any case.
I wouldn't mind it, honestly. Though that's kind of Jessica Jones' turf, she didn't exactly come straight to mind.
Yeah, even if you stopped her being a thief it's not like you could get rid of the cat motif, so there's always going to be a comparison. The platinum blonde and white fur definitely helps.
I think her bad luck powers help a lot also, when they're in use. They seem to come and go depending on who's writing.

Black Cat #7 cover by Campbell
"He's pure power and doesn't even know it. He's the best of us."-Matt Murdock
"I need a reason to take the mask off."-Peter Parker
"My heart half-breaks at how easy it is to lie to him. It breaks all the way when he believes me without question." Felicia Hardy
Emma was merged with Wolverine (creepy) in Diamond Patch.
I considered Silver Sable, but she's also related with Spider-Man, so the most logical thing would be someone related with Moon Knight. For Silver Sable, I considered the woman named Chloe Tran, who is a member of the Knights Templar.
Sue Richards, the Invisible Woman, was already merged with her own husband, Reed Richards. (Geez, how could Valeria and Franklin be born like this?).
Elektra was merged with Bullseye (creepy).
"Octopussy"? Not funny, pal. Check out Spider-Ham's world.
Maybe Stained Glass Scarlet is the best choice, after all.
Darwyn Cooke. It's a popular look although one that's not universally beloved among Catwoman fans.
There are actually a lot of female PI's in the Marvel universe.I wouldn't mind it, honestly. Though that's kind of Jessica Jones' turf, she didn't exactly come straight to mind.
Definitely showing off that booty .
Felicia looks great, but who's the lady in red...
Cool, thanks, Campbell sure can draw the ladies...
It's not exactly an original idea, but I could see Felicia as part of a team whose goals revolve around fighting against corporations and individuals whose actions are technically legal (or so they say) but who have harmed people less fortunate than they. Members would be Hobie Brown (the original Prowler) and Cardiac.
