The character of Cheyenne superhero Danielle Moonstar-- first given the code name of "Psyche," and later the slightly better "Mirage"-- was like the rest of her "New Mutant" teammates; modestly entertaining but never especially compelling. She was one of the team's two co-leaders at a time when it still wasn't common for female characters to lead super-teams, but I've rarely heard Mirage held up as a groundbreaker.
Though her character appears in the 2020 NEW MUTANTS movie, her best outing is probably in NEW MUTANTS #41, a solo story devoted to her encounter with a cowboy-styled emissary of Death.
However, I could've done without those versions of her costume where she sports a silly little feather from her headband.
