PussyCat: Agent of S.C.O.R.E. "Mirthful Misadventures of a Naughty Nonsensical Nymphet!"

If Austin Powers had a sister in the Swingin' 60s, she would have been...
...our favorite, funtastic, femme Agent of S.C.O.R.E.!

This tale originally appeared in Stag Annual #3 (1966), but this is from the one-shot PussyCat (1968) that reprinted her stories from various "laddy" magazines published by Martin Goodman, who also owned Marvel Comics.
The writer and artist are officially-unknown, but the scripter is probably Stan Lee or Larry Lieber, and the artist(s) probably include Stan Goldberg, Al Hartley, and Bill Ward.

Indira Varma

It's fascinating how many British actresses are appearing in US tv series, usually using very-well done American accents.
Not Indira Varma.
She may do upper-crust. She may do Cockney. She may do Desi. But she doesn't do American.
She does do a helluva lot of genre, though!
From her current stint on Game of Thrones to several major BBC sci-fi and detective series, Indira's made herself known both for her acting versatility and her sheer on-screen presence, including tastefully-done nude scenes in the cable series Rome and feature film Kama Sutra: a Tale of Love. (Hey, I'm only human!)
Genre appearances include...
Game of Thrones (Ellaria Sand)
World Without End [2012] (Mattie Wise)
Human Target (Ilsa Pucci)
Quatermass Experiment[2005] (Judith Carroon)
Inspector Lynley Mysteries "In the Blink of an Eye"
Bones "Yanks in the UK"
Law & Order: Criminal Intent "Assassin"
Basic Instinct 2 (Denise Glass)
Torchwood (Suzie Costello)
Luther (Zoe Luther)
Hustle (DCI Lucy Britford)
