A bawdy but non-pornographic, tongue-in-cheek secret agent comics feature, "Pussycat" was launched following the success of Harvey Kurtzman and Will Elder's color comiics feature Little Annie Fanny, published in Playboy magazine from 1962 to the 1980s. Long-established comic-book artist Wally Wood — whose own similar 1968-1974 Sally Forth would run in armed services publications — drew layouts for the 1965 premiere, in which Pussycat, a secretary for S.C.O.R.E. (Secret Council of Ruthless Extroverts) is recruited to fight the agency's archenemsis, L.U.S.T. Artist Jim Mooney provided finished pencil art and inking over Wood.
