As is the norm for comics, every superhero must have a supervillain (or twenty) to counter him, and MORT! is no exception. One day, Mort receives a letter from Dr. Gregory Mason (an old family friend) inviting him to witness the Doc's maiden voyage through his life's work--a pair of teleportation gates. As the Doc fires up the gates, his cat, mittens, begins chasing after Mort, eventually cornering him with nothing between them but the charging gates. Then, the cat pounces, the Doc jumps after it, and everything goes to white as Mort narrowly escapes the explosion brought on by the malfunctioning gates. Out from the rubble crawls Dr. Cat-astrophe, an "unholy fusion of man and cat".
Dr. C.'s got Dr. Mason's brains, body, and feet, and his cat's head, forepawas, and personality, which includes a hatred for rats, fish, and dogs, and a desire to make the people of the world worships cats as the Egyptians did.
Part 3 is comin' at'cha next week, so keep it tuned to MORT!... and other comics.
