[edit] Her Storyline

Raised in one of the few "sanctuaries" in Hell, the Rookery was a hidden, safe place to be compared to the more gruesome inner areas of Hell. Demi was raised there, so she never experienced the cruelty that almost all demons possess. Thus her personality is charming and naïve.

After a Demon army attacked the Rookery, Demi escaped and found the pyramid of Kit-Ra, a banished cat goddess. Kit-Ra took Demi in and she has lived there ever since. She regularly uses Kit-Ra’s mystical transport mirrors to visit other worlds and times outside of Hell.

[edit] Publishing History

Demi the Demoness was first published by Revolutionary Comics - Carnal Comics imprint in 1992. (Demi the Demoness #1) After the publisher Todd Loren was murdered, the series moved to underground comic publisher Rip Off Press from 1993 to 1997, where eight more Demi comics where published, including a Graphic Novel collection and a unique choose-your-own-path book. Demi then joined forces with the Revisionary Press, the company that took over the Carnal Comics imprint. Revisionary published six more Demi titles from 1997 to 2000. Demi's ribald adventures were also published in full-color in OUI Magazine from 1996-1998. Carnal spun off from Revisionary in 2000 and Demi has been published in ten more comics by Carnal since then. Demi has also appeared in comics published by Eros Comix, MU Press and several smaller publishing ventures.

Her stories have been translated into Swedish and Italian editions as well.
