Allegra

Born in the mid-nineties surge of creator-driven comics, Allegra arrived in 1996 courtesy of Steve Seagle and Scott Clark, carving out her own corner of the Wildstorm/Image universe with a self-titled series. Her world brings her into contact with a colorful cast that includes Grunge, Swift, and Shen Li-Min — some of the era's most distinctive Wildstorm personalities — suggesting she moved in genuinely exciting company. With appearances in Wildstorm Swimsuits '97 and Wildstorm Universe 97 alongside her solo book, she's a compact but authentic artifact of that bold, stylistically charged moment in nineties comics. Rare in the catalog and rooted in a creative era that still has devoted fans, Allegra is exactly the kind of hidden gem that rewards a curious collector's dig.
