Celia Ricadonna

Bursting onto the scene in 2006 as the central antagonist of Justin Gray, Jimmy Palmiotti, and Khari Evans's Daughters of the Dragon, Celia Ricadonna is a Modern Age Marvel villain with serious staying power — a femme fatale of the criminal underworld whose debut issue put her squarely in the crosshairs of Misty Knight and Colleen Wing. She's the kind of threat that demands the best, turning up across Heroes for Hire and even the pages of Miles Morales: Spider-Man, which speaks to a legacy that stretches nearly two decades. Fourteen appearances may sound lean, but for a character born in a sharp, street-level miniseries, every one of them counts — and if you love Marvel's gritty, urban corner of the universe, Ricadonna is absolutely worth tracking down.
