That was the plan when I drew Bear-oness so I drew a fox logo on her (which I didn&#8217;t really like). Then as I went along, I decided that Todrick would make a better match for Serpentor as Vulpintor, so the Cobra Commander role went to Sass.\u00a0 It made more sense to call her Kitty Commander, and that&#8217;s when I changed the logo to the cat one. Anyway, here&#8217;s Kitty Commander.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ageofanimus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/Kitty-Commander-Colour.gif?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1055 aligncenter\" title=\"Kitty-Commander-Colour\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ageofanimus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/Kitty-Commander-Colour.gif?resize=219%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"219\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ageofanimus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/Kitty-Commander-Colour.gif?resize=219%2C300&amp;ssl=1 219w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ageofanimus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/Kitty-Commander-Colour.gif?w=700&amp;ssl=1 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 219px) 100vw, 219px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;re probably thinking Vulpintor is next, but I finally decided that since I don&#8217;t especially LIKE Serpentor, I wasn&#8217;t going to use him.
