Rose and the Thorn

In 1983, K. G. Murray launched a single-issue comic featuring the mysterious vigilante Rose and the Thorn, a character who balances a gentle public persona with a fierce, justice-driven alter ego. This standalone story explores the duality of its heroine in a compact, self-contained adventure typical of the era's Australian comic publishing. Though brief, the issue captures the noir-tinged, urban crime-fighting spirit that defines the character's legacy.
