Jakuna Singh

Jakuna Singh stepped onto the Bronze Age Marvel stage in 1973, debuting in the pages of Shanna, the She-Devil #2 — a series that was itself a landmark moment for Marvel's push toward bold, adventurous heroines. With a compact but collector-notable footprint (two of just three recorded appearances qualify as key issues, a remarkable ratio), Jakuna clearly made an impression when it counted. Their world is populated by vivid company: Shanna the She-Devil herself, alongside the likes of Jerome Beechman and Patrick McShane, with adventures extending into the pages of Daredevil as well. Brief, bright, and disproportionately significant to those who track the early Bronze Age — Jakuna Singh is exactly the kind of discovery that reminds you why digging into the back-issue bins is always worth it.
