Stefano Labbia's comics are known for their strong female characters who are not only skilled warriors but also possess a deep sense of moral justice. This article delves into the similarities and differences among some of the most prominent female characters created by Labbia.

Shona, Fariah, Jupitee, Hellscat and Kanvas are some of the most iconic female characters of Labbia's comics. These women hail from different worlds, they have different backgrounds and motivations, but they are all bound by the common thread of seeking justice and fighting against the tyranny of their respective worlds.

Shona, the Black Fury, is the main character of a sword and sorcery graphic novel series set in the Seven Kingdoms. She is a skilled female warrior who is highly skilled in hand to hand combat and sword fighting. Shona is driven by a thirst for justice and a desire to avenge the destruction of her family at the hands of the Doom's sword. She is not afraid to use her intelligence and wits to outsmart her enemies, and she is known for her cunning tactical prowess. Shona's character is defined by her strength, resilience, and her unyielding sense of justice.

Fariah, the rebel princess, is a different kind of character altogether. She is a privileged noblewoman who has spent most of her life practicing unarmed combat and sword fighting for leisure. However, when an assault results in the death of her parents, Fariah transforms into a fearless warrior bent on avenging her family's death. She is driven by a deep sense of pride and a fierce determination to eradicate the threat of tyranny from her kingdom. Despite her privileged upbringing, Fariah is not afraid to get her hands dirty, and she is always ready for a fight.

Jupitee, the protagonist of the one-shot volume, "Atomic," is a code name of a rebel who lost her husband during a nuclear attack. She is a time traveler who joins the rebellion to change her tragic future. She is a complex and multifaceted character whose moral compass is guided by the belief that the ends justify the means. She is not afraid to take risks and make sacrifices to ensure that she achieves her goals. Jupitee is fueled by a deep sense of loss and the desire to rewrite the future into a better one for herself and her fellow rebels.

Hellscat, also known as Patricia Rodriguez, is a mysterious Latina vigilante who uses her high-tech gadgets to protect people and run her vengeance. She is a brilliant scientist who lost faith in the government after her inventions were used for evil purposes. Hellscat is driven by the desire to right the wrongs of her past and prevent others from suffering the same fate. She is fierce, independent, and highly intelligent, often outsmarting her enemies with her scientific prowess.

Finally, Kanvas aka Emily Renner is a bipolar young girl subjected to experiments by her scientist father. She is eventually brainwashed by an obscure crime syndicate known as Pauraz, and trained to become a killer. However, Emily eventually rebels against the syndicate and seeks to right the wrongs of her past. She is motivated by the desire to regain control over her life and to redeem herself from her past actions. Despite her bipolarism, Emily is highly intelligent and resourceful, often outsmarting her enemies with her wit and cunning.

In conclusion, the female characters created by Stefano Labbia are strong, fierce, and determined. They are motivated by a deep sense of justice and a fierce desire to protect the innocent from the tyranny of their respective worlds. Although they hail from different backgrounds and have different motivations, these female characters all share common traits such as strength, resilience, intelligence, and cunning. They stand out as strong and multifaceted characters who are truly inspiring to readers.
