Who is Nightveil?

Nightveil is a superhero introduced in 1983 as part of AC Comics' independent superhero universe, where she went on to become a core member of the all-female FemForce team, wielding mystical abilities as a sorcery-based adventurer.

Few characters capture the spirit of Bronze Age independent comics quite like Nightveil, who burst onto the scene in 1983's Americomics Special #1 β€” co-created by none other than the legendary Steve Ditko alongside Dan St. John β€” and never looked back. Over nearly three decades of publication, she became one of AC Comics' most enduring figures, racking up 112 catalog appearances across FemForce, her own self-titled series, and Good Girl Art Quarterly, with three of those issues earning key-issue status among collectors. She shares her adventures with a remarkable roster of AC heroines β€” She-Cat, Ms. Victory, Stardust, Joan Wayne, and Mara among them β€” making her a cornerstone of a universe that championed female-led storytelling long before it was fashionable. For fans of independent Bronze Age comics, Nightveil is exactly the kind of deep-cut discovery that reminds you how rich and wide the world of comics truly is.
