Created by Daredevil, Avengers, and Indiana Jones comics writer Dave Michelinie, Lynxana the Huntress was an original character created for the 1985 Marvel STAR Comics line as a villain, an amoral, mercenarial "failed Thundercat" who had their ninja like martial training, strength, and courage, but who washed out and became a bounty hunter.

Gradually, however, Lynxana was reminded of her former ideals and Thundercat chivalry, and eventually teamed with the others temporarily, though she went her own way as she valued her personal freedom.

Lynxana had no appearances apart from the 3 issue arc that introduced her...in the US, that is. Thundercats had strangely durable popularity in the UK, which caused Marvel UK to make Thundercats comics well past the point you'd think, with the last UK issue printed in 1991 (!). Her return story was penned by 2000 AD's Simon Furman, yes, as in Judge Dredd Simon Furman.

(Note the difference in coloring technique. UK comics use "solid" coloring, whereas American comics used the less expensive "dot" or four-color method.)

What's the current legal status of this character? That is unknown, but in the typical work for hire license, Marvel owns any character they create for a licensed series, which is why, for example, Marvel-created original characters in Micronauts like Bug have returned in the proper Marvel Universe, whereas toy characters that were part of the Micronauts license like Prince Acroyear have not, or why Circuitbreaker, the anti-robot bigot enemy of the Transformers created for the Marvel Comic, showed up in the Marvel Secret Wars series. it depends entirely on the specific text of the work for hire contract, but the most likely scenario is that the rights to Lynxana the Hunter are still at Marvel.

Hmm. I wonder if Marvel knows they may have the rights to their very own Thundercat.

Swordtember 2024, Pt. 2

Continuing my strange, pop-culture, RPG-style take on Swordtember, I've got a collection of 8 new swords from across a variety of media. This set includes Bloodborne, Magic: the Gathering, Monster Hunter, and more.

What you see here isn't all though. Two other famous blades-- Frostmourne from the Warcraft series, and the Poison Blade from Asssassin's Creed-- are also available, but only over on my Patreon! No worries on price though, it's totally free, as long as you're willing to follow my work on there.
