Zenescope: Mystere

As we move closer to October 31st we'll be getting more and more Halloween posts. Including among them will be some tributes to some women from the Zenescope comics which connect the Halloween theme nicely. The following character is Mystere, one of the Zenescope protagonists with necromancy abilities.  
Some of the other Zenescope posts on this site:

Mystere appears in the Zenescope series Day of the Dead and its Sequel Dance of the Dead as well a five issue mini-series named after her. She also guest stars in other Zenescope series such as Tarot.

Mystere's actual identity is Mary Medina. She grew up as an orphan and discovered she has the mysterious power to communicate with and control the dead which she uses for good. You can see looking at this character that she was heavily inspired by the Mexican holiday Dia De Los Muertos. Though her powers in the comics seem to be influenced by Voodoo too. Her costume reminds me a little bit of Silver Banshee with Mary face taking on the appearance of a skull when she is using her powers. 

Looking over Mystere's comics... this character tends to wear boots or shoes almost all the time. The images I was able to get depicting her barefoot are from Zenescope's incentive limited edition covers and swimsuit issues. They company sure knows how to hook in readers. From these images though we can tell that Mystere has some really nice feet. It would probably be a lot of fun to worship them. ^_^

All right everyone ...  that will be it for now. As always more to come soon!
