Who is Spark?

Ayla Ranzz of Winath gained lightning-generating powers after an encounter with Lightning Beasts on Korbal — the same incident that affected her brother Garth. She joined the Legion of Super-Heroes as Spark, carrying on a legacy of electric-powered heroism into the 30th century.

Born into the pages of Legion of Super-Heroes #88 in 1997, Spark crackles onto the DC Universe scene as a product of the late Copper/Modern Age, conjured by the creative team of Tom Peyer, Tom McCraw, and Lee Moder. Over a publishing life stretching toward 2012, this character moves through some genuinely prestigious company — sharing adventures with the likes of Batman, Robin, Green Lantern, Supergirl, and The Flash — a roster that signals a character woven into the broader fabric of DC storytelling. Spark's appearances span titles including DC Universe: Legacies and Green Lantern, placing her within DC's grand tapestry of continuity-spanning narratives. A relatively rare find in the catalog, Spark rewards the curious collector willing to dig into the Legion corner of the DC cosmos.
