| * Nanako Kuri, a young woman who is the last student of martial arts master Tetsuro Tanaka (Tiger/Judomaster II), debuts in Japan as the action-heroine **[[Tyger]]**. //Note: Although the date of Tyger's debut has not yet been confirmed, we believe it coincides with the 1977 Modern Comics reprint of the Judomaster series. Tanaka is 46 years old and retired from crimefighting at this time, only acting as Tyger's sensei and giving her advice during her cases. Tyger's action-heroine name is likely inspired by William Blake's poem, "The Tyger." Kuri is the granddaughter of Gen. Shimachi Kuri, known during World War II as the Tiger of Tokyo, and who was captured by U.S. Marines during the war (see "The Tiger of Tokyo," Marine War Heroes #14). Kuri herself is a woman of two worlds, since she grew up in both Japan and the United States, where she received much of her education. In 1980, Tyger becomes a founding member of Femme Force One.// ["[[http://www.5earths.info/earth-2/jsa-tp1982-01/|JSA: Times Past, 1982: Crisis on Earth-Four]]"] | * Nanako Kuri, a young woman who is the last student of martial arts master Tetsuro Tanaka (Tiger/Judomaster II), debuts in Japan as the action-heroine **[[Tyger]]**. //Note: Although the date of Tyger's debut has not yet been confirmed, we believe it coincides with the 1977 Modern Comics reprint of the Judomaster series.
