Morte Mamme

Born into the dark, imaginative world Clive Barker built for Marvel's horror anthology line, Morte Mamme made her debut in Clive Barker's Hellraiser #16 in 1992 — a Copper/Modern Age creation from the creative team of D. G. Chichester, Dan Lawlis, and John Rheaume. She went on to carve out her most significant presence in Clive Barker's The Harrowers, sharing those shadowy pages with characters like Lavinia Claire, Lucinda Claire, Dublin Morse, and Vera Wyshak. A compact but distinctive figure in Marvel's brief, fascinating foray into Barker's horror mythology, Morte Mamme is exactly the kind of deep-cut discovery that rewards fans willing to dig into the darker corners of early '90s comics.
