BC: DEFENDERS #33 THE DEFENDERS was always a bit of a weird series to me. On the outside, it looked like any other regular Marvel comic of the period....

Streaky II's first appearance, from The Daring New Adventures of Supergirl #6 (1983) by Paul Kupperberg & Carmine Infantino

"She reminds me of a cat I used to own"

Even loving her tiny and cute ways, this "new" Streaky left me wondering: Where was the original Streaky then (1983)? Where's our boy? And my thirst for knowledge took me a few places...

Streaky was brought to life by Superman's creator Jerry Siegel and Jim Mooney in 1961, contextually though, I'd like to bring the attention to the then editor Mort Weisinger, he was the editor of Superman stories and books from the 1940s to the 60s, needless to say that A LOT of the Superman mythos developed under him, including the Legion of Superheroes, Lois Lane solo book, Supergirl and obviously Streaky, the supercat:

Streaky (the first) getting his powers, from Action Comics #261 (1960) by Jerry Siegel & Jim Mooney

Streaky began his trajectory as one of the most famous superpets, appearing regularly on Adventure Comics and Action Comics, until he was left aside, along with other members of the Legion of Superpets, which made their last appearance in 1970. Times were changing and these "sillier" characters vanished, but they were not erased from continuity (yet), inevitably giving opportunity for fans to wonder what had happened to characters like Streaky...

Which brings me to Maryann Farrell's letter from the reviled Supergirl first solo series (issue #2), she asks what happened to Streaky after Supergirl moved from Midvale to San Francisco, to which E. Nelson Bridwell (continuity expert) answered... Streaky was now depowered and living with Supergirl's foster parents. And that's all there is to it. Streaky disappearance was explained via fan mail, the disrespect... But I'm honestly glad I was able to find the answer to my question.

The development mentioned by E. N. B. in which all the green Kryptonite turns into iron is from a story line by Dennis O'Neil in Superman's Sandman Saga (1971), and curiously it was the first Superman story edited by Julius Schwartz after Mort Weisinger's retirement, his impact on the character was considerable

"Pasko and Maggin pointed out that Schwartz shifted Superman away from single-issue stories dependent on temporary situations and gimmicks and encouraged writers to do longer arcs and character-driven pieces, as well as back-up stories featuring the private lives of Clark Kent and his supporting cast. Schwartz' tenure saw longer, more character-driven stories instead of relying on gimmicks". — from SDCC: Remembering the Julius Schwartz Era of Superman

Paul Levitz also pointed out in his Introduction to Superman: Kryptonite Nevermore:

Which, at the end of the day, also meant Streaky: Nevermore. At least, in his supercat incarnation - because years after his editorial demise Streaky was back, in a more "mature" version (i.e. without super powers) and in a female form. Although Streaky II would not last very long (much like Supergirl after COIE, sadly), his short life was appreciated - particularly because the original Streaky did not have to die for her to exist and be a pal to Kara!

Rest in peace Streaky II, this post is for you.
