Who is Colleen Wing?

Colleen Wing is a highly skilled martial artist and samurai swordswoman raised in Japan by her grandfather, a master sensei who trained her in the ways of the blade and hand-to-hand combat. She later became a private investigator in New York City, eventually teaming with Misty Knight as the Daughters of the Dragon.

Few characters introduced in the Bronze Age have proven as enduringly essential as Colleen Wing, who made her Marvel debut in 1974's Marvel Premiere #19, conjured by the creative team of Doug Moench and Larry Hama. Over five decades and 155 catalog appearances β€” seven of them collector-recognized key issues β€” she has woven herself into some of Marvel's richest street-level storytelling, turning up across Heroes for Hire, The Immortal Iron Fist, and Amazing Spider-Man. The company she keeps says everything: her pages pulse with the energy of Misty Knight, Iron Fist, Danny Rand, Luke Cage, and Spider-Man, placing her squarely at the beating heart of Marvel's gritty, neighborhood-scaled heroism. If you love that corner of the Marvel universe where loyalty, toughness, and camaraderie matter most, Colleen Wing is absolutely someone you need to know.
