Malicia

Conjured into existence in the pages of Strange #161 in 1983, Malicia is a Bronze Age creation of the legendary Bill Mantlo and Sal Buscema, launched through Editions Lug in the rich tradition of French-language Marvel publishing. With 98 catalogued appearances spanning an extraordinary arc from 1983 all the way to 2026, this is a character whose staying power across four decades speaks for itself — and two of those appearances carry the weight of key-issue status, making Malicia a genuine collector's target. Her adventures unfold primarily across Spécial Strange, Titans, and Strange, placing her in heady company alongside the likes of Tornade, Ororo Munroe, and Colossus. For fans who love digging into the corners of the Marvel universe where European publishing gave familiar worlds a distinctive voice, Malicia is exactly the kind of discovery that makes the hunt worthwhile.
