Who is Sardonyx?

Sardonyx is a noble of Gemworld, the magical realm at the heart of DC's Amethyst saga, where gem-named lords vie for power amid fantasy adventure.

Sardonyx is a Bronze Age gem of DC lore, stepping onto the page in 1983's Amethyst, Princess of Gemworld #1 β€” a debut crafted by the creative trio of Dan Mishkin, Gary Cohn, and Ernie ColΓ³n that launched one of DC's most imaginative fantasy corners. Over a publishing history stretching some 35 years, this character has kept remarkable company, sharing adventures alongside Amethyst herself, Dark Opal, Citrina, and even Green Lantern. Sardonyx earned a place in Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe, DC's own hall of fame for characters worth remembering, and at least one appearance carries the weight of a key issue β€” a small but meaningful footprint for any collector drawn to the glittering world of Gemworld.
