She has also appeared in movies Far from the Madding Crowd and Beginner's Luck.
Recurring series in the 1950s included Superman, Brick Bradford, Toot and Casper, Little Annie Rooney, Smokey Stover, Texas Slim and Dirty Dalton, Tim Tyler's Luck, Johnny Hazard, Terry and the Pirates, Lone Ranger, Flash Gordon, Mandrake, The Phantom and King of the Royal Mounted.
The title of the Umberto Eco novel The Mysterious Flame of Queen Loana (2004) is taken from the title of a strip episode, in turn inspired by H. Rider Haggard's novel She.
