Comic Book Cats, number 105: O’Malley and the Alley Cats #1, drawn by Al Hubbard, written by Carl Fallberg and lettered by Bill Spicer, published by Gold Key / Western Publishing in April 1971.
Oh, hey, it’s another Disney Cat! It’s been ages since I’ve seen The Aristocats, so I don’t even remember Thomas O’Malley and his fellow alley cats. I should see if they have it available on Disney Plus.
In any case, that 1970 animated movie resulted in a comic book spin-off from Gold Key that was released irregularly between 1971 and 1974, for a nine issue run. The majority of the stories were drawn by Al Hubbard, a prolific artist on Gold Key’s animated licensed titles throughout the 1950s and 60s. He also worked on a number of books released by Disney Studios. Hubbard passed away in 1984 at the age of 71.
