Rebecca "Rusty" Nales

Rebecca "Rusty" Nales made her Marvel debut in 1991's Cloak and Dagger #18, brought to life by Terry Kavanagh and David Ross right at the cusp of the Copper and Modern Ages. Her three catalogued appearances place her in rarefied company — sharing pages with Cloak, Tandy Bowen, Tyrone Johnson, Ghost Rider, and even Mephisto himself — which speaks to the high-stakes, street-level supernatural world she inhabits. Rare characters like Rusty are the hidden connective tissue of Marvel's storytelling, the kind of discovery that makes digging through an omnibus genuinely rewarding.
