She had no special attribute, no characteristic costume, or patented phrases, or weapons, or superpowers; she was conceived as just another extra, like a walk-on in a comic strip, which condemned her to non-survival, either by death or oblivion. Hence the first page of the well known projectNo Ghost Just A Shell waswritten. After that, Huyghe and Parreno contacted other artists to invite them to work in an organized manner
