Tumblr favorite #1757: Introduction to the Sorceress of Zoom
Original post here. Original poster superdames provided context:
The Sorceress of Zoom was awesome, and her stories were awesomely weird. She’s the ruler of the floating cloud city of Zoom, which is populated by her loyal subjects — the monster-zombies of humans she kills! She basically flies around Earth and terrorizes other cities and kingdoms in search of power and slaves.
What’s so weird is that the Sorceress is the main character in all these stories, but she’s clearly a murderous, tyrannical supervillain. So everywhere she goes, a different kind of heroic figure generally rises to ward her off — or she runs into a worse threat than herself, and ends up seemingly “saving” people from her rival.
It’s a pretty great template for a villain-led book. Plus, her headgear was fabulous, and in later stories it became her actual hair.
Sorceress of Zoom stories were signed by “Sandra Swift,” which is almost certainly a pseudonym used by different writer/artists. Don Rico is credited with creating her.
