The Lyrics

My 130th Superhero-Comic parody!!! Probably the lesser-known of Zorro’s female defenders after Black Whip was Lady Rawhide (Anita Santiago). She at first wanted to kill Zorro after her brother Roman was disfigured by the Commandante of California, falsely accused of being Zorro. But after she confronted Zorro and learned the truth, she became a vigilante too who uses a bright red distracting suit while wearing a white mask and gloves. She is proficient at hand-to-hand combat, acrobatics, the use of firearms, whips, ropes, and chains as well as her ability to use her natural charms to get close to her enemies. Her worst adversary was the female pirate Scarlet Fever who had taken their passenger vessel Evangelista by force and infected Lady Rawhide with a germ-ridden sword. Anita almost died but was saved by a female vampire who sucked the wound clean and healed it with her saliva. Lady Rawhide recovered and went back to kill Scarlet in a rage after learning that Roman had drowned. She then rode off into the sun…
Masked rider does as she please
Brings her enemies to their knees
Sexy costume, twin .50s
Fist-fighting vigilante

Rawhide,
Lady Rawhide
Rawhide,
Lady Rawhide

A Black Flag flies in the air
Sparks do fly as tempers flare
Scarlet Fever pirate dares
To bring black plague everywhere

“Evangelista” was not spared

Rawhide,
Roman died
Rawhide,
Anita cried

… then one-by-one
the pirates died

Hack! Slash! Ka-boom! Goodbye!!!

Lady Rawhide spared no one
Meted justice with her guns
Skewered Scarlet, made blood run
Upon her sword- yes, she won

Then disappeared into the sun

Rawhide,
Lady Rawhide
Rawhide,
Lady Rawhide

Zorro’s scantily-clad ally…

You are a 12 year-old who has just been one-bombed. Now your three caballeros will rescue you with 5s.

Pardon me for asking, but are you "The Mask of Zorro" or "Zorro, the Gay Blade?" :)~

Hey Rob, did Republic ever feature Lady Rawhide in any of their series? Black Whip had a 12-part, but I can't find Anita in the old series. Do you know where I can find her?
