Sexy Superheroine: Shanna The She-Devil #1

Writer/artist Frank Cho caught the attention of comic book and comic strip lovers with his Liberty Meadows comic strip he first began publishing in college.

Soon the comic strip became a hit in no small part to Frank's depiction of its lead character: the voluptuous Brandy.

From that point on Frank was and is considered one of the top ‘good girl’ artists.

That is no more apparent than when he penciled the Shanna The She-Devil mini-series for Marvel Comics.

WOW!  The jungle woman never looked so good!

In this version of Shanna’s origin several plane crash survivors come across a hidden Nazi laboratory on an island.

Upon entering the complex they inadvertently activate the incubation chambers-one of which contains a full-grown woman.

That woman: Shanna, starts to awaken and only the quick action by one of the survivors saves her.

At first she is afraid of them and speaks perfect German.

After they calm her down they explore the complex and unfortunately meet the other inhabitant of the compound-a raptor dinosaur, that proceeds to kill and maim several of the expedition's members.

Only the superhuman strength Shanna saves the others.

A beautiful woman, a Nazi compound, dinosaurs and a long lost island-what a combination.

Frank Cho’s art never looked so good and Shanna is absolutely gorgeous.

For some good old fashion fun be sure to pick up the entire 4-part mini-series: Shanna The She-Devil, from Marvel Comics.
