And, the third member of my Jewish super-hero trio is, Bark Mitzvah, a.k.a. "Muzzle Tov," the pet dog of the boy and girl who join rings, shout SHALOM, and become powerful adult super-heroes. Muzzle Tov/Bark Mitzvah was inspired of course by Krypto the Super-dog, and his name actually comes from a real ceremony that some Jewish people put on for their dogs when the animals reach a canine equivalent for adulthood. Even though he becomes super-intelligent, and gains a portion of his masters' powers in canine form, he cannot make the change himself and must wait for them to transform, by which he will change also. In this way he was also a bit inspired by various cartoons from my youth where some heroes had animal companions that they could bestow with power as well after they finished transforming themselves.
