Okay, quick 90s comics history.
Back in the early 90s Brian Pulido started Chaos! comics with Evil Ernie which was a successful indie book. Lady Death appeared in Evil Ernie and people liked her so much she got her own book. It was pretty popular for an indie title, had features in Wizard magazine, t-shirts etc. etc.
She's changed publishers a few times but is now back with Pulido and his Coffin Comics.
So out of that she has this kind of cult status among comic fans. Shes gone through changes over the years but her fanbase has always been there.
I could get more detailed but I figure that answers your question.
