Dawn Blackthorne

Dawn Blackthorne is a member of the Blackthorne family, a clan populated by characters including Slate, Necrona, Hunter, Dusk, and Kitty, within the superhero family drama of Jay Faerber's Noble Causes at Image Comics.

Dawn Blackthorne steps into the Modern Age spotlight with a debut in Noble Causes #13 (2005), courtesy of Jay Faerber, Fran Bueno, and Freddie E. Williams — a creative team with a knack for superhero family drama at Image Comics. With a surname shared by Slate, Necrona, Hunter, Dusk, and Kitty Blackthorne, it's clear Dawn moves in a richly populated world where the family dynamic is very much part of the story. Her appearances span Noble Causes and Image Comics Future Shock, making her a figure woven into Image's early-2000s tapestry. A compact but intriguing presence, Dawn is one of those characters who rewards the curious reader willing to dig into a beloved indie superhero saga.
