Theodore "Ted" Grant is a fictional character, a DC Comics superhero, known as the original Wildcat and a long-time member of the Justice Society of America (JSA).[1] A world-class heavyweight boxer, Grant became inadvertently entangled in the criminal underworld and developed a costumed identity to clear his name.

Modern depictions of Wildcat show him to be a rowdy, tough guy with a streak of male chauvinism, leading to frequent clashes with the relatively progressive Power Girl, as well as exploring some of the character's insecurities. Additionally, his longevity has been explained as being derived from a magic spell that gives him "nine lives". Like many older JSA members, he has been a mentor to younger heroes, particularly the second Black Canary.

Ted Grant briefly appeared in an episode of Smallville, played by Roger Hasket. Grant’s Wildcat was also a recurring character on the third season of Arrow, played by J. R. Ramirez, and appeared in Stargirl, portrayed by Brian Stapf. Additionally, Dennis Farina, R. Lee Ermey, and John DiMaggio have voiced Wildcat in animation.

## Publication history

[edit]

The Ted Grant version of Wildcat first appeared in Sensation Comics #1, and was created by writer Bill Finger and illustrator Irwin Hasen.[2] He continued in Sensation Comics until issue #90 (June 1949).[3]

## Fictional character biography

[edit]

Theodore "Ted" Grant is a normal human who was magically given nine lives. He remains at the peak of human condition due to his extensive workouts.[4] He is a world-class boxer who trained Batman, Black Canary, and Superman. Grant was in turn trained by ex-boxer Joe Morgan, who also tutored Atom and Guardian.

### Earth-Two

[edit]

Ted Grant first donned the Wildcat costume in Sensation Comics #1 (January 1942), the same issue in which Mister Terrific premiered.[5]

Wildcat's origin is chronicled in Sensation Comics #1 as well as Secret Origins #3 (1973) and All-Star Squadron Annual #1 (1982). Henry Grant vowed on his baby son's crib that the child would not grow up afraid of life, so he encouraged his son to participate in sports. Orphaned during the Great Depression, Ted becomes a heavyweight boxing champion. He also became tangled unknowingly in his manager's sinister plans. His mentor "Socker" Smith was killed by Grant's managers Flint and Skinner who used a syringe, loaded with poison, in a boxing glove. The dose was only intended to slow down Smith, but the duo misjudged the potency. When Grant was arrested for the crime, Flint and Skinner, afraid that he might know what had really happened, arranged for the young fighter to be killed. Grant escaped the attempt and survived, but the policemen with him were killed. As a result, he became a fugitive. Later, he came upon a child who had been robbed of his Green Lantern comic. The boy, describing the mystery-man Green Lantern, inspired Grant to create a cat-themed costume. He took the name Wildcat and vowed to clear his name. He brought Flint and Skinner to justice; the criminals were forced to confess, clearing Grant's name, and obtaining justice for Smith. Using the identity of Wildcat, Grant continued to fight crime.[6]

By issue #4, Wildcat had a custom motorbike, the "Cat-o-Cycle", and a comedy sidekick named Stretch Skinner.[7][8]

In the pages of All Star Comics, Wildcat had a few adventures as a member of the Justice Society of America (JSA). In the 1980s, when the All-Star Squadron was published, it created a retroactive continuity in which the majority of WWII mystery-men interacted with each other. Wildcat had a place as a member of that conglomeration of heroes as well. The 1970s run of All Star Comics (1976–1979) had Wildcat play a central role as a JSA member, where he defeats Psycho-Pirate.

In Crisis on Infinite Earths, Red Tornado shatters Wildcat's legs, and he is told that he will not regain mobility. His goddaughter Yolanda Montez succeeds him as Wildcat.

### Post-Crisis

[edit]

Following Crisis on Infinite Earths, Wildcat regains his mobility and rejoins the Justice Society. The group enters Limbo to prevent Ragnarök, but are freed in Armageddon: Inferno. In Zero Hour: Crisis in Time!, Wildcat loses his longevity to Extant and retires. During this time, he has affairs with Selina Kyle and Hippolyta.[9][10][11][12]

Wildcat is not present in The New 52 continuity reboot. In Doomsday Clock, this is revealed to be the result of Doctor Manhattan altering the timeline and erasing the Justice Society from existence.[13] After Manhattan undoes his actions, Wildcat and the Society return.[14][15]

In JSA #6 (2025), Wildcat is killed by Lady Eve.[16][17] Shortly afterward, he and several other deceased JSA members return as ghosts and recruit Kid Eternity to protect the rest of the JSA.[18]

## Powers and abilities

[edit]

Possessing no inherent superpowers, Grant is considered a accomplished boxer and mixed martial artist in peak human condition;[19] he is skilled in various disciplines such as capoeira, hapkido, kickboxing, krav maga, muay thai,[20] taekwondo,[21] and boxing, the last of which he typically favors.[20] In addition to his fighting abilities, Grant is a skilled motorist,[20] investigator specializing in sports crimes, and is a proficient teacher of martial arts, teaching numerous civilians and superheroes alike.[19] Later stories revealed he has a nine lives curse, originating from Zatara's alterations to prevent a transformation into a cat. This grants him virtual immortality, provided he isn't killed nine times.[19]

* The Yellow Wasp – A wasp-themed criminal who wields a stinger gun, rides the Waspmobile, and uses chemicals to control wasps. He went on a crime wave and kidnapped "Stretch" Skinner before being defeated by Wildcat.[30] The Yellow Wasp later escapes from prison, kills the usurper of his gang, and leads his gang in a raid on Fetterman Arms Works. He and his gang are defeated by Wildcat and "Stretch" Skinner and the Yellow Wasp is returned to prison.[31] The Yellow Wasp later escaped from prison and came up with a crime spree that revolved around him having a large swarm of wasps blanketing the sky. During a fight in the subway, Wildcat and "Stetch" Skinner defeated the Yellow Wasp and his men and returned them to prison.[32] He later dies at some point and is revealed to be the father of Killer Wasp.[33]
