Queen Reina

Debuting in the pages of Bill Black's Fun Comics #3 in 1982, Queen Reina is a Bronze Age gem from AC Comics — that scrappy, beloved independent publisher that kept the spirit of classic superhero adventure alive when the big houses weren't the only game in town. Created by Ben Smith and Mark Heike, she's been part of AC's colorful universe for a remarkable thirty years, sharing adventures with the likes of Captain Paragon, Black Shroud, and Proxima across titles that double as a love letter to comics history. With appearances in Bizarre Thrills: The Paragon Publications Story among her credits, Queen Reina is exactly the kind of character that rewards the dedicated digger — a distinctive corner of indie superhero lore well worth tracking down.
