Austin McConnell, the YouTuber and author who plans to create a cinematic universe made up of heroes from the public domain, has released the first episode of a new, web-based animated series based on Cat-Man. The character, who still appears in DC publications, entered the public domain after its copyright wasn't renewed in the late 1960s. Originally appearing in Crash Comics Adventures #4, the character quickly grew popular enough to take over the title completely.
This is hardly the first attempt to revitalize or update abandoned heroes. Whether it's Erik Larsen using them in Savage Dragon and The Next Issue Project or Dynamite's long-running Project Superpowers, the idea of bringing back these old, forgotten heroes isn't new. But it is to McConnell.
