Astra

Bursting onto the scene in 1987 during comics' Copper Age, Astra made her debut in AC Comics' The Armageddon Factor #2 — part of the scrappy, independent publisher's beloved FemForce universe that championed bold, action-driven storytelling outside the mainstream giants. She's woven into the fabric of the FemForce world, sharing pages with the likes of Page Connors, Scarlet Scorpion, and Astron across the Armageddon Factor saga and beyond. A relatively rare find with just seven catalogued appearances, Astra is exactly the kind of hidden gem that makes digging through AC's corner of comics history such a rewarding adventure for collectors.
