Character

Stinger is a villainous character in the universe of ThunderCats. The character was part human, part robot and part dragonfly. With humanoid arms and head, the hybrid creature wears a helmet and has 6 wings that allow it to fly. He never appeared in the animated series.

However, Stinger appeared in a story in the 1989 “ThunderCats UK Annual” published by Marvel Comics UK. The story was titled “Past Perils Times Two” and in it, Lion-O and Cheetara are transported back in time to the distant past of the Third Earth. There, Cheetara encounters two children who are being chased by a Stinger. Cheetara saves them, but in doing so attracts the attention of Mother Stinger. This would imply that the Stigners are a race of creatures that lived on the Third Earth in the past.
