Scratch9: Cat of Nine Worlds

by Rob M. Worley

Caught in a mad scientist's experiment gone wrong, an ordinary house cat named Scratch gains the extraordinary ability to summon any of his nine lives to get out of a fix. Referred to as Scratch9, he is the world's greatest super-cat. Now, for the first time, Scratch9 appears in his own super-sized graphic novel with a story that continues his Eisner-nominated (the comics' worlds' Oscar) adventures! In the great traditions of Mighty Mouse, Underdog, and the classic Hanna-Barbera cartoons, Scratch9 makes a triumphant return in his first full-length feature. This time, though, Scratch's ability to summon his nine lives won't help him against his evil opposite Strick, who sends Scratch back in time to the ice age. Now our hero must journey through history to claw his way back to his best girl, Penelope, and make the world safe again!

Cats? Comic? Awesome art? Action? More cats?
I've loved this book since I was a kid and still love it.
I adored the storyline and the characters, it's totally awesome.

Cool concept, fun characters, decent story. But I just didn't feel like it lived up to its potential. Much of the action left me lost as to what was happening, and none of it seemed to have much of a point or really fit together like it should.

This book has a cute premise, exploring the lives of Scratch throughout history, and the art is great. I love how expressive Scratch is with his entire body. I imagine the character's actions read well even for kids.
