Lady Death

Lady Death, launched in 1994 by Chaos! Comics, redefined the grimdark anti-heroine for the '90s. Spearheaded by writer Brian Pulido and brought to vivid, macabre life by artist Steven Hughes, this initial three-issue series established a supernatural realm of vengeance and dark fantasy. It remains a cornerstone of the decade's edgy, independent comic boom, cementing Lady Death as an enduring icon of horror comics.
