Accompanying Emily are her four black cats. Sabbath, who
is distinguished by a scar on his right ear, is the troublemaker
of the four and rarely seen close up. Nee-Chee, who has
a black and white striped tail, is the schemer. The creative
cat is Miles and the cat closest to Emily is Mystery.
Mystery, the leader of the group, has a white star for
her left eye. Emily Strange has gained a reputation as
something of a feminist comic icon, and the franchise
has a considerable merchandising catalog, including clothing,
stationary, stickers, and accessories, all featuring Emily's
distinctive appearance and frequently featuring one of
her sayings (such as a beach-towel emblazoned with "Wish
you weren't here").
