Hellina / Nira X

From 1996, the Lightning Comics series Hellina / Nira X introduced readers to a dual-identity sci-fi action heroine, with writer Steven Zyskowski and artist John Cleary crafting a single-issue debut that set the stage for a long-running saga. Blending supernatural elements with a gritty, 1990s comic aesthetic, the series follows its protagonist through a world of high-stakes adventure and dark fantasy. Though it began with a lone issue, Hellina / Nira X has persisted as a cult favorite, showcasing the creative team's commitment to expanding its mythos over decades.
