I really really like your take on Cat.

Yes, there was more to her than meet the eyes. And I always thought she was a competent and intelligent woman: after all, she must be one of the best in her line, if she Planet hired her... (If we consider she went on and ended being head of CatCo, she was indeed very smart.)

I'm glad Lois and Cat connected, even if "in extremis".
I always felt there was something missing between them in the show: we once saw her join the Tsunami investigation, and I regretted this was the only one we saw Cat join the gang.

Another very enjoyable story! Thanks...
