Jaguar (Insurgent Comix)
The Jaguar is a fictional character, a comic book superheroine created by artist Laura Molina and published under her privately owned Insurgent Comix imprint. The character, created in response to California's 1994 passage of proposition 187, made her first appearance in ''Cihualyaomiquiz, The Jaguar'' #1 (1996).〔(International Hero - Cihualyaomiquiz, The Jaguar )〕〔(Laura Molina - Biography/The Jaguar )〕
The Jaguar's secret identity is that of Linda Rivera, an East Los Angeles law student. Linda lives in an alternate timeline in which proposition 187 has transformed California in to a police state ruled by right-wing fundamendalist groups, which enact the removal of equal employment and affirmative action policies. People of color are consistently denied civil rights while racist hate groups are allowed to proliferate throughout the state. Tired of seeing her people persecuted, Rivera dons the mantle of Cihualyaomiquiz, a term from the Aztec language translated as "''Woman ready to die in battle''" and becomes a vigilante known as The Jaguar. She is assisted by local activists groups and makes use of her fighting ability, detective skills and knowledge of the law in her pursuit of social justice.
==Publication history==
Molina first conceived The Jaguar as a response to California's proposition 187 which was designed to deny illegal immigrants social services, health care, and public education. The proposition would later pass with 58.8% of the vote before being overturned by the United States federal court.〔(California's 1994 Proposition 187 )〕 Molina viewed the proposition as a license to discriminate and a direct attack on human rights, as explained in her 1996 introduction to the character:
The Jaguar made her first published appearance in ''Cihualyaomiquiz, The Jaguar #1'', written and illustrated in 1996 by Laura Molina, with Tomás Benitez assisting with additional story editing and dialogue.〔(Molina's Cihualyaomiquiz - Calisphere )〕 The series is on hiatus, but Molina promised further installments.
