Janine Spengler

Janine Spengler is a supporting character in the Italian sci-fi series Nathan Never, set in a dystopian future. She operates within the world of Agenzia Alfa, the special-ops agency at the series' core, alongside protagonist Nathan Never and his colleagues.

Emerging from the pages of Sergio Bonelli Editore's Nathan Never in 1991, Janine Spengler is a fixture of Italian comics' science-fiction frontier — a Copper/Modern Age creation brought to life by Antonio Serra, Nicola Mari, and Andrea Baricordi. Over more than three decades she has woven her way through the Nathan Never universe and its expanding offshoots Nathan Never Annozero and Agenzia Alfa, sharing adventures with a compelling cast that includes Legs Weaver, Sigmund Baginov, and Ann Never. With 53 catalogued appearances spanning 1991 to 2025 and at least one collector-significant key issue to her name, Janine Spengler is exactly the kind of enduring supporting presence that rewards dedicated readers of Bonelli's richly imagined future-noir world.
