A RETRO CATMAN ADVENTURE: CATMAN V. THE NATIONAL SECURITY AGENCY II

CATMAN V. THE NATIONAL SECURITY AGENCY II 
(A Retro Catman Adventure From October and November 2013)

NSA Denies French Spy Reports


AMERICA SPIES ON FRANCE..."No we didn't!" - Monsieur L'Inspecteur en chef Catman is watching the watchers!


US SPYING ON FRANCE AND GERMANY? Catman and Professor Nuts continue the investigation...which takes them to the very top of the French icon, the Eiffel Tower, where the now Catman-Clouseau finds a clue and more than he bargained for!


THE USUAL SUSPECTS: Hot on the US spying case, and a possible rogue NSA, the now Catman-Clouseau encounters two prime suspects in Paris.


WHILE PROFESSOR NUTS REMAINS IN PARIS, Catman shadows his prime suspect all the way to Berlin and with the benefit of his enhanced cat vision and cat hearing, catches the culprit red handed!



HAVING CAUGHT HIS PRIME SUSPECT RED-HANDED, Catman and Professor Nuts catch the 'red-eye' back to the US. Nuts continues on to the super-secret Catman lair on Alcatraz in San Francisco Bay, while Super Sumie joins our intrepid flea-bitten hero in Washington. Together they gain entry into the HQ of the National Security Agency (don't ask how - it's complicated and would take a lot more pictures) and begin to investigate.


HAVING TRACKED THEIR PRIME SPY SUSPECT BACK TO NSA HEADQUARTERS, the fearless felines, Catman and Super Sumie, split up to investigate. Deep within the NSA building, Super Sumie once again encounters the suspect.


AT THE SAME TIME THAT SUPER SUMIE is following their prime suspect through the rows and rows of computer banks used to spy on the world, Catman, on a different level of the NSA stronghold, makes more amazing discoveries!
What is it that Catman has discovered? Are more dastardly deeds afoot? Tune in next week. Same cat channel to find out.


In our last episode, Catman, peering out from a darkened doorway into a corridor of the NSA building, made a surprising discovery, enough to evoke his worst expletive, "Holy catcrap!" Our intrepid caped crusader closed the door to the darkened office and turned on the light, only to be surprised again!


IN AN OFFICE, deep inside the National Security (spy) Agency, Catman confronts a mysterious woman who looks like Natasha Fatale, but due to copyright restrictions is not Natasha Fatale but is instead Natalya Alexandra Simonova, and who was lying in wait for our intrepid hero. Watch out Catman!



IN AN OFFICE, inside the National Security (Spy) agency, our beloved Kaped Kitty Krusader continues his conversation with the nogoodnik and femme fatale, Natalya Alexandra Simonova..."Don't listen to her Catman! Don't do it! She's trouble! She's not your species! You'll live to regret it...if you live!"


FROM AN OFFICE DEEP WITHIN THE NSA, Catman calls Super Sumie on her official wrist radio.


WHEN LAST WE LEFT OUR KAPED KAT KRUSADERS, Catman had made an important discovery and radioed Super Sumie, via their official Catman wrist radios. He would have used his smart phone and maybe Facebook or Tweeeeeter, but the NSA tracks those signals. Anyway, he requested Super Sumie to go back into the matrix and to meet him in the basement. So that's where we find our tiny kitty in blue tights, plummeting downward through the very bowels of the NSA to rendezvous with the Catman.


SUPER SUMIE exits the NSA matrix tunnel and enters the super-secret basement where she at last meets up with Catman and an unexpected surprise.


CATMAN TELLS SUPER SUMIE what he discovered about the NSA leadership.



CATMAN AND SUPER SUMIE BEGIN TO SEARCH the basement level of the NSA building for the nerve center of the domestic and foreign electronic spying operation when they spot a strange, eerie glow from the end of a matrix corridor. Immediately our intrepid heroes leap into the air and jet towards it. But are they jetting to their doom. Standby!


CATMAN AND SUPER SUMIE FLY TO THE VISION at the end of the corridor and are amazed at what they find - the heart, the brain, the mind, the soul of the NATIONAL SECURITY AGENCY!


DEEP INSIDE THE MONOLITH CHAMBER Super Sumie makes a sudden, ominous discovery.


SUDDENLY CATMAN AND SUPER SUMIE have company! Things are looking desperate!


SUDDENLY THERE IS A TREMENDOUS EXPLOSION OF ELECTRICITY! What's happened. Are our furry flea-bitten heroes ok?


WHEN THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS come back on, a shaken and upset Super Sumie sees a scene of devastation...and the villainous National Security Agency spies have fled the scene. She calls out to her heroic companion...


ONCE AGAIN OUR MIGHTY FLEA-BITTEN FELINE HEROES ARE TRIUMPHANT. With all the red tape of the American bureaucracy, it will take weeks if not months to repair all the damage and for the NSA to start spying on us again.

THE CATKIDS CHRISTMAS VACATION: A TRIP TO SAN FRANCISCO

Last week Mr. Nekojin made his way through the house with an important announcment - Tajimi Jones was offering to take them all to San Francisco on a holiday. His last stop was the room shared by all the adopted kids, Nomi, Bin, Bo, Gami, Kambei, and Noir, also known as the "Midnight Shadow," super hero extraordinare.


Well, they didn't go that weekend because of very heavy rain in the area. But the big day finally arrived in the wee, dark hours of Tuesday morning and they all boarded a train for their visit to "Sam Franzco" to see Sandy Claws...or something like that.


Once the train pulled out of the station, it didn't take long for the catkids to scatter to all parts of the train, while others relaxed in their chairs and engaged in other "activities."


Professor Jones (also known to us as "Papa Jones" and the father of Tajimi Jones) arranged for the kids to take a cable car ride downtown after they arrived in "Sam Franzco" - probably something neither the catkids nor the Municipal Railway will soon forget!


Right after their cable car ride, the catkids all made their way to a supre-extra large department store to see Sandy Claws, or Sanity Clause, or Panda Claus, or Santa or someone.








After little Noir (also known as the "Midnight Shadow, Super Hero Extraordinaire") finished giving Santa her list, and checking it twice, and after all the other kids had a chance to talk to...alright...Panda Claus...it was time to head over to the Opera House where Catman and Super Sumie were appearing in the last season performance of Tchaikovsky's famed ballet, THE CATCRACKER!


After the ballet and a special backstage meeting with Catman and Super Sumie, the catkids headed to their final destination of the day - Union Square and ice skating! Even Hello Snake had the opportunity to get out on the ice, thanks to Papa Jones.


And then it was time to climb back onto another cable car and head back home. I'm certain the Nekojin catkids had a great time, one they won't soon forget...and neither will San Francisco.

CATMAN ON THE BEAT

CATMAN ON THE BEAT

Officer Kelly and his rookie Officer O'Neil in the company of Inspector Catman and his trusty "cat's paw" baton, members of the dreaded SUPER-EXTRA TOUGH TENDERLOIN TASK FORCE (SETTTF - if you try to pronounce it, it sounds like a "Bronx cheer") started out their day walking a foot beat out of Central Station in San Francisco's toughest neighborhood - determined to make a difference.


As they were walking along, Inspector Catman thought he saw a familiar face.


But there seems to have been a bit of a misunderstanding, 
making it necessary for the inspector to go into foot pursuit!


But the wily Steve Law was just to sharp for the trio of
officers - too bad!

CATMAN'S HALLOWEEN PARTY, 2014

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!


Super Sumie has been transformed into
a terrible spider! Oh my!

Some foxkids, the catkids from Hagwartz School of Magical Stuffs, and some catkid-yuri
ghosts spent a lot of time getting this old house ready for the party to come!

The guests have started to arrive, including "Hello Snake" all made-up for the occasion, Mrs. Nekojin, Catman, little Nomi in her "super suit," some foxes, some tanuki, "Franken-Vinnie,"
Annabelle Nekojin as a cute witch, the Kitty Mafia, a panda bee, and Vlad, the cakid who no one talks about, who lives in the basement, and only gets to come out on Halloween.

The party is in full swing with celebrity guests including La Dax and Tono Von Dachs from the ballet, some of our favorite monsters. Music is by KOOL KAT JAZZ featuring the vocal stylings of what is left of Kitty Lee, with Frankenstein playing rhythm guitar and "Alien" doing back-up vocals.
Just about everybody who is anybody was there, including cute little Darumas, apprentice poverty spirits Bin, Bo, and Gami, chief poverty spirit Binbogami herself, Max-sensei, Gray, Gizmo, the climbing pig, the cops from Law & Order, Danger Boy, Kung Fu Bunny, - and all the while Catman is taking a nap! 

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE FROM
THE KITTY MAFIA ART WORX
AND CATMAN COMIX.
