Ophelia Sarkissian
Few characters carry the intrigue of Ophelia Sarkissian, who made her debut in the pages of Le Manoir des Fantômes #21 in 1981 — a Bronze Age arrival brought to life by Murray Boltinoff and Abe Ocampo. Over a remarkable four-decade span stretching to 2024, she's proven a persistent presence in the Marvel universe as catalogued through French publications, turning up most frequently in Wolverine, Titans, and Spécial Strange under the Panini France banner. The company she keeps is formidable — her adventures unfold alongside the likes of Steve Rogers, Captain America, Iron Man, and Logan, placing her squarely in the thick of Marvel's heaviest hitters. That kind of staying power across 43 years is a testament to a character worth seeking out, especially for collectors with a taste for Bronze Age gems and the rich world of Franco-Belgian Marvel publishing.
