Fat Lady
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
None.

History
She appeared in “The Maltese CupCake,” a story which makes little sense, but was published in Adventure Comics #450.
Mr. Astor asks Wonder Woman to find the Maltese Cupcake. As WW leaves, (and while Astor listens) Petula Lorry tells WW that it is in the hands of a shady man in the “Uh-Oh” district of town.
Petula leads WW into a trap. “You were looking for a shady man ! Instead you find a big lady who throws a big shadow—HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HO-HO-HO…And now… you’ll promise to give up the search for the Maltese Cupcake ?” asks the Fat Lady.
WW spots the Maltese Cupcake up on a shelf. She leaps up to get it, but knocks it off ; it smashes on the floor. Mr. Astor arrives with lots of Hostess™ Cupcakes. WW decides to lasso all three NPCs (as they eat the Hostess Cupcakes) and take them off to jail.
Description
