Dr. Annette Newmar

Howard Chaykin brought Dr. Annette Newmar to life in 1994 as part of Malibu's Power & Glory, a sharp, stylish series that arrived at the height of comics' bold Modern Age experimentation. She moves through a world populated by the likes of A-Pex, Belladonna, and Allan Powell — a cast that signals the kind of morally textured, adult-oriented storytelling Chaykin made his signature. With appearances across both the main series and the Power & Glory Holiday Special, she's a compact but distinctive piece of a cult favorite corner of the Malibu universe — the sort of character that rewards readers digging into the era's more ambitious, creator-driven work.
