==Fictional character biography==
Pantha was a cat-like member of one of the incarnations of the [[Teen Titans]].<ref>{{cite book |last1=Cowsill |first1=Alan |last2=Irvine |first2=Alex |last3=Manning |first3=Matthew K. |last4=McAvennie |first4=Michael |last5=Wallace |first5=Daniel |title=DC Comics Year By Year: A Visual Chronicle |date=2010 |publisher=DK Publishing |isbn=978-0-7566-6742-9 |page=248}}</ref> During her time with the Titans, she had no knowledge
While many of the other Titans were close friends, Pantha went out of her way to alienate herself from the team. Pantha was overtly hostile towards her teammates, often ridiculing and berating them. Despite her attitude, her feral abilities made her a valuable asset to the team.
Line 31:
To her initial frustration, Pantha was "adopted" as a surrogate mother by [[Baby Wildebeest]]. She did not like this at first, often making references to grisly ways the child could perish. She does work with him when need be, such as when the Titans helped in a counter-attack on murderous aliens in the [[Bloodlines (comics)|Bloodlines]] crossover.<ref name=bb12>''Bloodbath'' #1–2 (December 1993). DC Comics.</ref> She eventually takes responsibility for his care when she left the Titans with [[Red Star (comics)|Red Star]], forming a family.<ref>''New Titans'' #114 (1994). DC Comics.</ref>
Pantha and her teammates were almost stars of a children's cartoon series but the deal fell apart.<ref>''Teen Titans Sell Out'' One-Shot (November 1992)</ref> She is part of a multi-hero effort to investigate and destroy alien parasites
Later, she teams up with her old allies when [[Cyborg (DC Comics)|Cyborg]], now with an entirely new level of power, threatens the entire Earth. The Justice League of America showed up also and a series of mistakes led to the entire team fighting. Pantha took on [[Catwoman]] but neither side won as they were interrupted by blasts from [[Orion (character)|Orion]]. Baby Wildebeest himself was subdued by [[Superman]].<ref>''JLA Vs.
