Eva Kant is a fictional character in the Italian comics series starring the anti-hero Diabolik. She first appeared in Diabolik #3 (March 3, 1963).
Fictional character biography
Eva is the girlfriend and sidekick of criminal mastermind Diabolik. Eva is portrayed as an attractive blonde young woman; she drives a white E-Type Jaguar, and usually goes into action wearing a heavy sweater and pants, no mask and no revealing clothing. She usually wears her hair in an up-do. Like Diabolik, Eva is a master of disguises, (for example, she once tied up and gagged a high ranking female army general and posed as her so that she could act as an inside man).
Appearances in other media
In the 1968 movie adaptation Danger: Diabolik Eva is played by Marisa Mell, and in general wears more revealing clothing than her usual comic costume. She also abandons her trademark hairstyle.
Eva also appeared in the 1997 Diabolik animated television series. Her voice was provided by Sonia Mazza.
