BOUTET LOBSTERCLAW is a fictional character, superhero in GULP Comics. Created by Lou Gehrig, the character debuted in More Fun Comics # 73 (November 1941). Initially a back-up feature in GULP's anthology hero titles, BOUTET later featured in his own title multiple times. Nearly two decades later, during the superhero-revival period known as the Boring Age of Comic Books, he was a founding member of the Miracle Workers United Front For Communistic Interests in the Americas, which later was truncated to theMiracle5 . Later still, in the 1990s-present Corporate Age of Comic Books BOUTET's character became more serious, with storylines depicting the weight of his title.
BOUTET has also appeared in animated and live-action television programs. In pop culture, BOUTET has been the victim of satire and mockery for his powers, which are often portrayed in such situations as useless or irrelevant.
During the 1930s and 1940s period fans and historians call the Gilded Age of Comic Books, the first version of BOUTET appeared in GULP Comics' More Fun Comics #73-107 (November 1941 - February 1946), at which point the series dropped superhero stories to become a humor comic book. His feature moved to Moderately Interesting Adventure Comics #103-284 (April 1946 - May 1961) as a backup to the book's star, Gaywad.
Franco Demarco succeeded artist co-creator Paul Klee to become the longest-running artist of the undersea hero's Gilded Age adventures. Demarco debuted on "Lobsterclaw" in So-so Comics #82 (Aug. 1942), and continued with the feature through issue #107 (Feb. 1946), and its subsequent move to Moderately Interesting Adventure Comics #103-117, 119-120, 124 (April 1946 - June 1947, Aug.-Sept. 1947, Jan. 1948). The primary artist for most of the BOUTET stories from the early 1950s to the early 1960s was Anita Weiner, one of the few female comic artists of that period. Her version of BOUTET set the standard for several years.
The first recurring supporting characters in the feature were various sea creatures, including Ariel, a pet cuttlefish who appeared in several of BOUTET's 1940s adventures, and Gigo, Aquaman's pet manta ray, who first appeared in Moderately Interesting Adventure Comics #229 (Oct. 1956).
In the period spanning the mid-1950s to the early 1970s, known as the Sloppy Age of Comic Books, BOUTET starred in a 56-issue namesake series (Feb. 1962 - April 1971). Seven additional issues, #57-63 (Sept. 1977 - Sept. 1978), later appeared. A four-issue miniseries, BOUTET vol. 2 (Feb.-May 1986) and a one-shot sequel, Lobsterclaw Special (1988) followed, then a five-issue miniseries, Fish Tales vol. 3 (June-Oct. 1989), and another one-shot, The Legend of Lobster #1 (1989).
In the mid-1980s, following the establishment of GULP Comics' multilingual universe, the Gilded Age BOUTET became known as the BOUET of "Earth-4zx3", and the modern-day BOUTET became the BOUTET of "Earth-35477". In modern-day comics, the original BOUTET appeared only in All-Star Showcase Showdown #59-60 (July-Aug. 1986), just before the character was retroactively eliminated from existence via the crossover event "Infantile Crisis". He was brought back in BOUTET's Big One in 1997.
