Let's not forget Streaky:

:wink:

Love Streaky, but I think the writers really jumped the shark here with super-monkey. Didn't even bother giving him a real name. Same with super-horse. That's pretty embarrassing. Just slapped capes on a monkey and a horse. Look, I get that they're not as prominent as streaky and krypto, but they really didnt even bother trying to give them distinct personalities either. shameful. been thinking about this for a while.

I'm in full agreement with you when it comes to Beppo the Super-Monkey.

But you're wrong, very wrong, regarding Comet the Super-Horse.

Comet was born a handsome centaur named Biron who saved the goddess Circe from the evil machinations of the wizard Maldor. Circe rewarded him by granting his wish to become fully human. But Maldor switched potions turning Biron into a horse to whom Circe then gave super powers to compensate for the disaster. But Circe still eventually found a way to turn Biron fully human in which guise he romanced Supergirl. But being human caused some very serious problems so Circe turned him back into Comet the Super-Horse who would then dream of his romantic dalliances with Supergirl. But Comet would periodically revert to human form under the influence of a comet.

So Supergirl had a boyfriend who was actually a horse. Yes, most women do like horses but Supergirl's stallion delivered more than the usual. That storyline was as daring as comics got back in the early 1960's.
