Pantha Volume 1: The Goddess And The Dangerous Game Paperback / softback

Leaping and roaring into the comic world from her debut in the pages ofVampirella, the mysterious crimefighter called Pantha has endured sincethe 1960s.

This feline femme fatale has remained relatively obscure over theyears, but she always returns to give horror-action fans something scary (and alittle sexy) to sink their fangs into.

This new story presents Pantha as thelast living avatar of the Egyptian goddess Sekhmet.

Commanded by Ra to walk theearth for all eternity as atonement for Sekhmet's transgressions in life, Panthaseeks out evil in all its guises.

With the power to transform from a beautifulwoman into a feral panther, this is one super-heroine who is much more than justa pretty face.

Pantha also wields the Scarab of Atum-Ra; forged from the ancientgod's tears, this amulet is an object of great power that many forces would killto possess.

The Scarab can destroy cities, corrupt souls, and open doorways toother dimensions. Writer Brandon Jerwa and artist Pow Rodrix clearly enjoy playing with thesecharacters, delivering a pulpy, Roger Corman-esque adventure that brings all thenecessary action, intrigue, and characterization that comic readerscrave...without forgetting that comics can be fun, too.
