Jenni Ognats

Jenni Ognats is XS, a 30th-century speedster and proud granddaughter of Barry Allen, the Flash. Inheriting the family's connection to the Speed Force, she serves as a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes, carrying on her legendary lineage far into DC's future.

Jenni Ognats made her debut in Showcase '96 #8, a product of the mid-nineties creative energy that was reshaping DC's future — literally, given the company she keeps. Sharing pages with luminaries like XS, The Flash, Saturn Girl, and Cosmic Boy, she's woven into the fabric of DC's legacy heroes across titles like Adventure Comics, Green Lantern, and Flash. Created by Tom McCraw and Roberto Flores, her presence stretches across a remarkable 24 years of DC storytelling, from 1996 all the way to 2020. She may have a modest footprint in the catalog, but for fans tracing the connective tissue of DC's timeline, Jenni Ognats is a name worth knowing.
