Probably the first Desi heroine in American comic books...
...this one-shot character (and princess, to boot) appeared in Fiction House's Jungle Comics #57 (1944)
For a "frail girl", she kicks serious a$$!
It's a shame she never got another appearance.
Sadly, both the writer and artist are unknown.
(The records for long-defunct publisher Fiction House are lost to history.)
Note: India is a subcontinent of Asia, so she qualifies as Asian even if she doesn't look stereotypically "Oriental"!
