Sayyar of Llarr
From the fertile imagination of Gardner Fox and artist Mike Sekowsky, Sayyar of Llarr stepped onto the Silver Age stage in 1961's Justice League of America #3 — a debut that placed this alien figure in extraordinarily rarefied company, sharing pages with Aquaman, J'Onn J'Onzz, and the notorious Kanjar Ro alongside fellow extraterrestrial ruler Hyathis of Alstair. That debut issue alone signals this is no throwaway background player but a character woven into one of DC's most landmark early Justice League stories. Rare in the catalog with just a handful of recorded appearances across Justice League of America and Showcase, Sayyar of Llarr is precisely the kind of deep-cut Silver Age gem that rewards the curious collector willing to dig into the cosmic corners of DC's most ambitious era.
