About this listen

Explore the Stories Behind the Legends

In the mid-1970s, Misty Knight burst onto the pages of Marvel Comics. Before Storm, Shuri, or Riri, Misty opened the doors of comics as Marvel's first Black woman superhero.

A detective and martial artist with a bionic arm that gives her heroic strength, Misty personified the undercurrent of independent Black media and the budding post-soul culture. First appearing in 1975, she broke down stereotypes to become one of the backbone characters of the Marvel Universe.
