Who is Séléné Gallio?

Selene is an immensely powerful mutant and ancient sorceress who has survived for millennia by psychically draining the life force from others. She operates within the Hellfire Club's Inner Circle as the Black Queen, placing her in direct conflict with the X-Men.

Born from the creative minds of Chris Claremont, John Romita Jr., and Dan Green, Séléné Gallio made her entrance in the pages of Spécial Strange #48 in 1987 — a Copper Age debut that launched a presence stretching across more than three decades of French-language Marvel publishing through Editions Lug. Her catalog places her in remarkable company: the pages she inhabits are shared by titans like Logan, Ororo Munroe, Colossus, Sebastian Shaw, and Malicia, a roster that signals she moves in the highest-stakes corners of the Marvel universe. Appearing most prominently across Spécial Strange, Titans, and Nous sommes les Nouveaux Mutants, she's a figure worth seeking out for collectors who love discovering how Marvel's rich mythology was brought to francophone readers with its own distinct flavor. Twelve catalog appearances across 34 years makes every issue she graces a genuine find.
