Shelia Vernon

Born into the wild pages of 1949's Slave Girl Comics, Shelia Vernon is a genuine Golden Age survivor — a character who debuted in the post-war era of pulpy adventure comics and has kept her place in the catalog all the way into the 21st century, a remarkable span for any figure from that freewheeling period. Created by Howard Larsen, she inhabits a vivid world of sword-and-sandal storytelling alongside striking characters like The Flame Goddess, Nimir, and Malu, the kind of exotic company that defined the era's taste for bold, escapist adventure. Her appearances across Slave Girl Comics, Slave Girl Princess, and Barbarians and Beauties reflect AC Comics' dedication to preserving and celebrating exactly this brand of Golden Age treasure. For collectors with a passion for the raw, unpolished energy of late-1940s adventure comics, Shelia Vernon is a rare find worth tracking down.
