Dazzler

    (Marvel, 1981-1986)
™ and ©1981 Marvel Entertainment Group

First and foremost, she’s a singer. By all accounts, Allison Blaire has the voice and the talent to make it to the top. But Allison also has a secret life as Dazzler, a mutant with the ability to transmute sound into light—channeling light to meet her will.

First appearing in the Uncanny X-Men #130, Dazzler is certainly a reluctant super-hero, wanting nothing so much as to be left alone to pursue her singing career. But trouble never seems to be far behind for this star-crossed mutant, and it takes all her power just to stay alive.

Dazzler was always a promising character, but this particular series was a bit uneven and did not always do justice to the character’s potential. Although sales of the early issues were heavy, the title’s popularity eventually waned, forcing it to conclude with issue #42.
