Princesse Leia Organa

Few characters carry the weight of a galaxy across 43 years of comics pages quite like Princesse Leia Organa, who made her French-language debut in Strange #108 in 1978 — right in the heart of the Bronze Age — courtesy of Steve Gerber and Bob Brown, published by Editions Lug. Across more than five decades she has graced the pages of Titans, Star Wars Comics Collector, and Star Wars, sharing her adventures with the likes of Luke Skywalker, Chewbacca, C-3PO, R2-D2, and Dark Vador. With 51 catalog appearances and two collector-recognized key issues to her name, she's a genuine treasure for fans of Franco-Belgian comics history and Star Wars devotees alike — proof that a legendary figure transcends any single language or market.
