@seismic-2: Sun Girl was published by Timely/Marvel back in 1948. Her own comic debuted in mid-1948, as did new series for Namora and Venus. At the time Timely/Marvel was playing up female heroes. Sun Girl's own series lasted a mere three issues, but she continued to appear in Human Torch stories. She was drawn by Golden Age artist Ken Bald; after a long career he passed away in 2019 at the ripe old age of 98!

Thanks for the information, Shalla Bal! Sun Girl sounds like an interesting character. It would be nice to see her get more use.

Thanks for the information, Shalla Bal! Sun Girl sounds like an interesting character. It would be nice to see her get more use.

She seems to have a one-panel cameo in 2015's Last Days of Ant-Man (other Timely Golden Age characters are shown in this story too).





Also, according to Wikipedia, a Sun Girl popped up in 2013's Superior Spider-Man Team Up....but it's not the same one, unfortunately--it's a brand new character.
