Ilda

Ilda is a Silver Age science-fiction character from DC's anthology title Strange Adventures, created in 1960. She is associated with space-opera settings and has crossed paths with heroes like Green Lantern, The Flash, and Star Hawkins across various DC titles.

Ilda made her debut in the pages of Strange Adventures #119 in 1960, a product of the Silver Age imagination of writer John Broome and artist Mike Sekowsky — a creative team that knew how to make DC's anthology titles crackle with wonder. Over a publishing history that quietly stretches all the way to 2021, she's kept remarkable company, sharing adventures with luminaries like Green Lantern, The Flash, and Star Hawkins across titles including Threshold and Twilight. With 23 catalog appearances and at least one key issue to her name, Ilda is exactly the kind of quietly enduring Silver Age figure that rewards the curious collector willing to dig a little deeper into DC's rich, strange corners.
