Maya Lopez

Few characters introduced at the turn of the millennium have carved out as lasting and distinctive a presence as Maya Lopez, who made her Marvel debut in Daredevil #9 in 1999, brought to life by Glenn Herdling and Gregg Schigiel. Over more than a quarter century of stories, she's proven herself worthy company for the heaviest hitters in the Marvel Universe — sharing pages with Daredevil, Spider-Man, Captain America, and Steve Rogers across titles like Avengers and New Avengers. With 100 catalog appearances, a key-issue debut, and a publishing history stretching from 1999 all the way to 2026, Maya Lopez is a Modern Age original whose staying power speaks for itself — a character who arrived quietly and never really left.
