Ms. Cyanide

Bursting onto the indie comics scene in 1995, Ms. Cyanide is a Copper/Modern Age creation from Blackout Comics, brought to life by the team of John R. Platt, Scott Cohn, and Jesse Chen in the pages of Bad Girls of Blackout #1. She's the kind of edgy, attitude-driven character that defined the scrappier side of '90s independent publishing, sharing her world with the likes of Cyan Jones, Jenny Blackeyes, and Ice — and earning her own spotlight in Ms. Cyanide & Ice. With only a handful of appearances, she's a genuine collector's curiosity: a snapshot of a bold, boundary-pushing moment in small-press comics that rewards the fan willing to dig a little deeper.
