The Netfix show is quickly shaping up its cast before the launch this year. Actress Rachel Taylor will be joining the cast as Patsy Walker, also known as, Hellcat. 
The character will be named Trish Walker, as opposed to the more familiar name. She will be a radio host and best friend to the title character Jessica Jones.
Patsy Walker has a storied history in the Marvel Universe and before.
Patsy Walker first appeared in the Timely Comics Miss America Magazine #2 from 1944, (yellow cover with a girl and a boy holding a baseball bat), which can be snagged off eBay for around $40.
She made her first appearance in the Marvel Universe proper in Fantastic Four Annual #3 from 1965, which can be found for around $12 in mid-condition.
She had her first go as a super-hero in Amazing Adventures vol. 2, #13 from 1972, a solid $5 and under book.
Walker was re-introduced in 1975 in The Avengers #141, should be able to be had for under $7.
Finally, she becomes Hellcat in The Avengers #144.
Patsy Walker is one of the few characters that has gone from Timely, to Atlas, to Marvel comics(and the only one who still somewhat regularly appears, she was in She-Hulk recently.)
So what do you think, is Rachel Taylor a Hellcat?

damnit, I was just looking at getting her first appearance for myself, not to flip, and now this. Its going to cost way more now.
I don’t see these heating up too much to be honest. Buy now before the show debuts just in case.
