Miss Diavolo

A short-lived but lively crime-fighting series from the late 1940s, Miss Diavolo ran for 28 issues under the A.R.C. imprint. The title character was a glamorous adventuress who battled crooks and spies, often with a theatrical flair befitting her name. While the creative team behind the series is not widely documented, the strip stands as a spirited example of the post-war pulp-influenced heroine genre. Its modest run offers a snapshot of the era's appetite for daring, masked vigilantes before the Comics Code reshaped the industry.
