  • Catwoman wanted to steal the statuette from a Gotham City museum, but found someone else had beaten her to the loot. She chased the other thief, and in the end, knocked the thief down a rooftop window. She investigated, and found the statue broken on the floor. She also discovered a time machine, with which she traveled 15 minutes back in time. Arriving before "the other thief", Catwoman managed to successfully steal the Glass Cat now, only to find out that the mystery thief she had been chasing was herself. She destroyed the time machine to get rid of her temporal double, and the backlash on the time-stream caused the statue to return to its original showcase, intact.
  • Bungle, the Glass Cat is a magical creature who lives in the Land of Oz.
  • The magician Dr. Pipt brought the Glass Cat to life in order to test his Powder of Life, and so that it would chase the mice out of his home. However, it was too proud and vain to chase mice, so the magician's wife Margolotte named it Bungle. Margolotte and Dr. Pipt's friend, Unc Nunkie, were accidently turned to marble by the Liquid of Petrification. Although she had never ventured far from the Magician's house, Bungle set out with Ojo and the Patchwork Girl to help find the ingredients for the antidote and along the way met the Woozy and the Shaggy Man. When they arrived at the Emerald City, she decided to remain there. Her conceitedness made her disagreeable, so the Wizard of Oz temporarily removed her pink brains and replaced them with clear ones. Through its incessant prowling throughout the Land of Oz, the Glass Cat has acquired intimate knowledge of its complex terrain; and it is generally willing to exploit this knowledge to the benefit of Dorothy and her friends. Later, The Glass Cat guided the rescue party that saved Trot and Cap'n Bill from entrapment on Magic Isle. The usually-uncooperative Bungle found the lost Button-Bright on Glinda's bidding, because "she really feared the great Sorceress...." In personality, Bungle is almost stereotypically catlike—cool and reserved and aloof as well as vain. The cat "is so determined not to show emotion that when implored to bring help she sets off very slowly and runs only when out of sight." the Cat is virtually invulnerable to harm, which is a great advantage in its various adventures.
