Yesterday I couldn't finish this challenge because I went out with friends and stayed late watching a film with them (Red Sparrow. Not a particularly good film, but Jennifer Lawrence's character had chemistry with her uncle, if that's your short of thing. The uncle is played by Matthias Schoenaerts, who I didn't recognise until the very end, because shaved he looks like a completely different person).

Anyway. Here are a few icons of Lady Shiva! A few from Richard Dragon: Kung-Fu Fighter, her debut run, but mostly from her appearances in The Question.

Screenshot from the cover of Richard Dragon: Kung-Fu Fighter issue 5. Over a red background, Shiva jumps kicks Richard Dragon's chest. She's wearing a green set of loose long sleeved shirt and pants, with a deep cleavage and a golden belt, as well as a golden bandana in her hair and large circular golden earrings. Richard wears a dogi. The cover announces "Her name is Lady Shiva... and she hates Dragon's guts!"

Icons (200x200 this time) behind the triangle.
Screenshot from Richard Dragon: Kung-Fu Fighter issue 5. Shiva stands proudly, seen from the chest up. She has her long black hair down, with a red bandana on top, and two large circular earrings, and she wears a long sleeved green shirt put together with a large belt. Screenshot from Richard Dragon: Kung-Fu Fighter issue 5. Lady Shiva has a fierce expression as she punches Richard Dragon in the face (with an effect saying "KRAK"), and tells him "Will you beg... pig?" Screenshot from Richard Dragon: Kung-Fu Fighter issue 18.Lady Shiva looking down, judgemental. She wears similar clothes, but the bandana is striped, the earrings are larger, and she wears a blue shirt and cape showing a deep cleavage.
Screenshot from The Question issue 1. Close up to her serious expression. This time she has pixie short hair, wearing golden chain earrings that reach her jaw, and some eye and lip makeup. She's saying "You are half right." Screenshot from The Question issue 2. Close up to Shiva's profile. She has the same pixie cut still, no jewels, a black tank top, and a vaguely amused expression as she holds a maroon fan close to her face, which she uses during a fight scene. Screenshot from The Question Annual 1. Shiva has her hair longer, barely reaching her shoulders, cut in layers and voluminous. She's wearing smaller, golden earrings, barely visible, and a red jacket, this time. She looks unimpressed.
Screenshot from The Question Annual 1. Close-up to Shiva's amused expression. She's holding a gun close to her face, and says "Take another shot now." before giving it to her oponent. Screenshot from The Question Annual 1. Close-up to Shiva's face, as a lock of hair falls over her forehead. This time one of her earrings is visible: golden skulls. Screenshot from The Question issue 28. Shiva from the chest up, wearing a sleeveless pink top with a high neckline, hair long and layered below her shoulder. She has one arm extended, hand making a fist, and the oder crossed over her chest, palm open, ready to fight.
Screenshot from The Question issue 29. Close up to Shiva's profile. Her hair is flowing around her face, in the wind, and she wears various yellow beads adoring it. The neckline of her purple coat is visible. She wears a serious expression. Screenshot from The Question issue 37. Shiva, seen from the chest up. She has long, layered hair and bangs and red lipstic. She's taking out a fucsia scarf, and still wearing a black shirt and a leather coat over it. She looks challenging and vaguely amused. Screenshot from The Question issue 37. Shiva and Renee Montoya stand in the rain. Renee, with a pixie short hair and a white tank top, hovers over Shiva, who's crouched down just a bit after getting shot in the arm. Shiva has her long hair down and wears a black tank top.
 
 

I wholeheartedly recommend looking her up in these runs, btw. She's in Richard Dragon: Kung-Fu Fighter #5-18, and in #1-2, Annual #1, #28-31 and #36-37 of The Question. The Annual is preceeded by Detective Comics Annual #1 and Green Arrow vol. 2 Annual #1, which also include delightful Shiva appearances.
