Snake Woman

From 2006 to 2007, Virgin Comics published Snake Woman, an 11-issue series that reimagines the classic Indian myth of the serpent goddess Manasa in a modern, urban context. Written primarily by Zeb Wells alongside Gotham Chopra and Sharad Devarajan, with moody, atmospheric art by Michael Gaydos, the series follows a young woman who discovers her connection to an ancient snake deity, blending supernatural horror with a coming-of-age story. It stands as a distinctive entry in Virgin's line of mythologically inspired comics, showcasing a fusion of Indian folklore and Western comic sensibilities.
