Darla

Darla is a supporting character introduced in the 1985 Longshot limited series, operating in Marvel's street-level New York milieu. She has crossed paths with figures such as Logan, Spider-Man, and Daredevil, appearing across Longshot and Daredevil titles.

Darla made her Marvel debut in the pages of Longshot #4 in 1985, born from the distinctive creative partnership of Ann Nocenti and Arthur Adams at the height of the Bronze Age. Though her total appearances number in the modest twenties, she's kept remarkable company across the decades — sharing pages with the likes of Logan, Spider-Man, and Matt Murdock — and her presence across Longshot, Daredevil, and Daredevil Annual speaks to a character quietly woven into the fabric of Marvel's street-level world. With over four decades of publishing history and at least one key collector issue to her name, Darla is exactly the kind of deep-cut discovery that reminds you why digging through the longboxes is always worth it.
