Pavane

Born from the fertile Bronze Age imaginations of Doug Moench and Paul Gulacy, Pavane made her Marvel debut in Master of Kung Fu #31 in 1975 — stepping into one of the era's most stylish and sophisticated titles, a book that blended espionage intrigue with martial arts action in ways few comics dared. She shares her pages with an exceptional roster — Shang-Chi, Leiko Wu, Clive Reston, Black Jack Tarr, and the dangerous Razor-Fist — company that speaks to the richly textured world she inhabits. Though her catalog footprint is select, her longevity across reprints and collections spanning all the way to 2019 means she's been rediscovered by new generations through the celebrated omnibus and epic collection editions. For fans diving deep into Marvel's Bronze Age espionage corner, Pavane is exactly the kind of compelling figure who rewards the curious collector.
