Marada (comics)
Marada the She-Wolf is a fantasy comic book fictional character created for Marvel Comics by writer Chris Claremont and English artist John Bolton. Publication history She first appeared in '' Epic Illustrated'' #10 (Feb. 1982). The story was originally planned for the character of Red Sonja, Conan's sometime partner, but had to be changed due to issues surrounding the then-in-production ''Red Sonja'' movie with Brigitte Nielsen. Claremont moved the historical milieu from the Hyborian Era to the Roman Empire, and changed her hair from red to silver. This change of character from Red Sonja to Marada resulted in some dispute over ownership of the character. Since Marada's adventures were first published in the creator-owned series ''Epic Illustrated'', the rights to her character were eventually given to writer Claremont and artist Bolton. Marada is introduced as "her mother was the firstborn of Caesar", though it is unclear if this refers to Julius Caesar or to a current emperor ( ...

Their other Arabic name, ''al-Jarājimah'', suggests that some were natives of the town Jurjum in Cilicia; the name Marada in Arabic is the plural of Mared which could mean a giant, a supernatural beings like Jinn, a high mountain or a rebel. Whether their name was due to their existence outside of legitimate political authority or their residence in the mountains is not known. They were joined later by various ...
