History: Born in America, Alexis Devin was raised in Japan, and trained in the arts of ninjitsu from the age of 6. She studied intensely, not to be a mercenary killer, but to force her young body stricken with polio, back to life. As she grew she dreamed not of adventure and intrigue, but of a simple, full life. One day those dreams were shattered. Alexis found herself caught in the centre of a murderous power struggle between the lords of Japan's underworld, the mighty Yakuza. Forced to fight for her life, she became Whisper.

Comments: Created by Steven Grant and Rich Larson, Whisper started out at Capital Comics, where it ran for two issues, before moving over to First, where it ran for thirty-seven issues and one special.

Found this on comics news website: "Whisper was created in 1980 and first published by Capital Comics in 1983. The series moved from Capital Comics, where it lasted two issues (Capital discontinued its comics line to focus exclusively on distribution), to First Comics, where the series spanned a one-shot special, six issues of First Adventures, a special apocryphal crossover with Mike Grell's Jon Sable in Crossroads #1, and 37 issues of her own comic."
