Who is Shanna la Diablesse?

Shanna O'Hara is a fierce jungle protector and wildlife preservationist who, following personal tragedy, retreated into the wild and forged a warrior's life alongside leopard companions. Published in French by Arédit-Artima, this edition brought Marvel's untamed She-Devil to European readers.

Born from the creative partnership of Don McGregor and Rich Buckler, Shanna la Diablesse made her debut in L'Inattendu #1 in 1975, arriving in the Bronze Age with the kind of bold energy that era was known for. Published by Arédit-Artima across French-language titles like Ombrax-Saga and Spécial Strange, she carved out a distinctive corner of European comics over a twelve-year run. Her catalog appearances place her alongside a remarkable cast — Natasha Romanoff, La Veuve Noire, Victor Von Fatalis, and Pantherman among them — suggesting adventures that never lacked for intrigue or danger. With a key issue already to her name and a presence that spanned over a decade, she's a rewarding discovery for collectors with a taste for Bronze Age gems and the rich world of Franco-Belgian Marvel publishing.
