milton_caniff wikipedia excerpt
The character of Madame Lynx was based on Madame Egelichi, the femme fatale spy played by Ilona Massey in the 1949 Marx Brothers movie Love Happy. The character stirred Caniff's imagination, and he hired Ilona Massey to pose for him.[9] Caniff designed Pipper the Piper after John Kennedy and Miss Mizzou after Marilyn Monroe.[9]
I didn't think ANYBODY liked "Love Happy"! 'Twas the Marx Brothers' last movie and Marilyn Monroe's first (She appears for less than a minute, with two forgettable lines).
