Real Name: Katherine “Kitty Pryde Height: 5’4” Weight: 105lbs. Group Affiliation: Excalibur First Appearance: Uncanny X-Men #129, January 1980 Nothing slows Shadowcat down – if something gets in her way, she walks right through it! Her mutant ability to “phase” the molecules of her body gives her ghost like intangibility, letting her pass through walls, walk on air and allowing the things she touches to do the same. Though she’s a veteran super-hero, having served with both the X-Men and Excalibur, at heart she’s still an ordinary, rambunctious teenager-well maybe not so ordinary! X-TRA FACT: Though she lives in England with the rest of Exaclibur, Shadow Cat is America, born and raised near Chicago!
