Power Level:
Game system: DC Heroes Role-Playing Game

Context

During the 1970s, confectioner and cakes maker Hostess advertised in major comic books. The advertisements were full-page comics starring Marvel and DC Comics characters (and Hostess products).

These comics were nonsensical and a parody of the most absurd aspects of Silver Age  comics. They’re still fondly remembered for their goofiness.


Powers and Abilities

She’s really big. The caption says she’s 60 feet tall, but she’s not. She’s more like 18 feet tall.

History

She appeared with Wonder Woman in “Cooky La Moo on Broadway”, published in Freedom Fighters #11.

A short circuit on a giant poster of movie star “Cooky La Moo” causes the image on the poster to become animated. She grabs up nearby Steve Howard, much to the consternation of Diana Prince, who changes to Wonder Woman. WW lassos Cooky, and tells her that “This is no way for a movie star to behave…Think of your image, dear…”

Cooky calms down, and all is well. Steve gives Cooky a Twinkie. The press loves Cooky.


Description

She’s a blonde beauty, wearing a sexy red dress and red shoes.


Personality

When she first comes to life, she seems to be insane. Then, after Wonder Woman uses her lasso, she becomes calm again.
