Shanga the Star-Dancer is a fictional character in the Marvel Universe. The character first appeared in Marvel Two-in-One #79 (September 1981), and was created by Tom DeFalco and Ron Wilson. The character also appeared in Quasar #14 (September 1990).
Shanga the Star-Dancer is a Zhalla'Kian, a race of virtually immortal crystal-based humanoids possessing natural cosmic energy manipulating powers. Shanga devoted her life to the art of dance, spending millennia practicing and perfecting her craft. Finding her life unsatisfying, she began to travel through space. After centuries of wandering, she eventually happened upon Earth. There, she met Elton Morrow, who was the Blue Diamond in the 1940s, and took him with her back to space to be her mate.
Shanga was later encountered on the Stranger's laboratory world and was set free.
The Star-Dancer received an entry in the original Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe #10.
