Mirage could arrest me anytime



I never really had any crush on a cartoon character - there were plenty of comic book characters that made me feel all funny inside from a very young age, including Black Cat, Huntress, Judge Anderson, Kitty Pryde and Maggie Chascarillo. But I never felt the same way about any cartoon characters on animated TV shows. I didn't even  find Bugs Bunny attractive when he put on a dress and played a girl bunny.

Except for Mirage, the undercover cop in the C.O.P.S.cartoon from the late eighties. While I usually had disquieting admirations for the bad girls, I also thought Mirage was the bee's knees.

I think it was the uniform. And how tough she was. Nobody fucked with Mirage.
