Katherine Bowen (Earth-5171)

"We're gonna be a team now...? So what about do we call ourselves Beast and Shadowcat?"

- - Shadowcat Katherine "Kitty" Bowen was born to the rich Bowen family in Manhattan, New York, wasting her fortune like nothing and caring little for others. When she returned to her house after a party, Kitty was saved from a robber by Hank Johnson, a young delinquent, and she soon became a friend of his. However, the couple was kidnapped by Argus and experimented on. Unlike the other test subjects, the two young adults did not die, instead, they gained superhuman abilities; Kitty could traverse walls while Hank acquired a wolf-like appearance while also gaining super strength, speed and senses. Together, they decided to use their powers to prevent other people like them from ever being hurt, as the two vigilantes Shadowcat and Beast.
