Lady Satan

First Appearance

Original Publisher

Harry 'A' Chesler

Golden Age Origin

Lady Satan and her fiancé were victims of a German bombing while on a ship. It sunk, and her fiancé died. Thus, Lady Satan took an oath to be a foe of the Nazis. Donning a mask and waltzing about in an evening dress, Lady Satan traveled unnoticed through the streets of Nazi occupied France as she fought the German invaders.

In her third appearance, she was a sorceress who fought against the occult instead of Nazis. No explanation for the change in methods or powers was given, or even indication that it was the same woman.

Powers and Abilities

As a spy, Lady Satan used her charm and good looks to gain information as well as stealth and weapons (conventional and a few gimicks) when it is necessary.

Ladysatan2

Lady Satan in her first appearance, prior to becoming a sorceress.

As a sorceress, she used powerful magic that allowed her to do just about anything. She also wore a ring in the shape of a serpent which could release gasses derived from “dragon scales” that allowed her to “unveil the shadow world." This sorceress version fought supernatural foes.
