Where it came from
Firestar #2 was published in 1986 as part of a four-issue limited series by Marvel Comics. The character, Angelica Jones, had originally been developed for the animated series Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends before being transitioned into the mainstream Marvel Universe. This miniseries served to codify her origin story and solidify her place within the complex continuity of the X-Men-related titles, focusing on her struggles with her mutant powers and her manipulation by the villainous Emma Frost.
The series was written by Tom DeFalco and illustrated by Mary Wilshire, with inks by Steve Leialoha. Wilshire’s design work sought to translate the character's television-inspired aesthetic into a more grounded, dramatic comic book style. Upon release, the series was received as a significant expansion of the Marvel mutant mythos, marking an important step in the successful integration of a character born in animation into the broader, long-standing lore of Marvel's printed medium.
