When no one would help her, she hastily put together a superhero outfit and even created a name for herself. She eventually found enough evidence to expose the conspiracy. Shortly after The Harbinger was closed down for investigation and mothballed.

  • Kitty was the author of "Watercress Blossoms", a serial comic about the misadventures of a girl who had moved into a haunted house, for their school newspaper, The Harbinger. Quite by accident Kitty stumbled onto a plot by Rhea Borstein, faculty advisor, and the copy editor, Tom Little to take over the school. When no one would help her, she hastily put together a superhero outfit and even created a name for herself. She eventually found enough evidence to expose the conspiracy. Shortly after The Harbinger was closed down for investigation and mothballed. SweetTart remains active to this day, as implied by her watching over the city from atop a building in the final panel. Creator Jonathan Sweet confirms he "wants to use her again in future stories, as soon as I find them". SweetTart's costume consists of a Sonny Tufts Jr. High cheerleader's skirt (borrowed from her best friend, a STJH cheer squad member) and top, a blonde wig tied in long pigtails, an ivory-colored masquerade mask, large earrings shot through with colorful rhinestones, and flat-soled loafers-type shoes. When not in costume she generally wears a long military-type jacket, a red-and-green sweater, faded and patched blue jeans, and large glasses. Her real hair is an untidy brown mop described by Jon unflatteringly as "a poodle haircut". Her name comes from both an affectionate epithet--"sweetheart"--given to her by her friend Aren, and the lettters ST (for the comedian Sonny Tufts) on the front of her shirt. It also refers to a feminization of Jon's surname, "Sweet" (sort of like "Batgirl" or "Supergirl" are female counterparts to male heroes), and a nod to the chalky, crunchy confection SweeTarts.
