Who is Tsunami?

Tsunami is a DC Comics character from the World War II era, introduced as a Japanese-American superhero with water-based powers. She became a core member of the Young All-Stars, navigating wartime prejudice while fighting alongside other heroes of the 1940s home front.

Debuting in the Bronze Age pages of All-Star Squadron #35 in 1984, Tsunami is a DC character brought to life by the legendary Roy Thomas and Rick Hoberg — two names synonymous with that era's rich, lovingly crafted superhero mythology. Over a span stretching into the mid-2000s, she carved out her place most prominently in Young All-Stars, keeping vivid company with the likes of Green Lantern, Neptune Perkins, and Dan the Dyna-Mite. With a collector-significant key issue to her name and an entry in DC's own Who's Who: The Definitive Directory, Tsunami is exactly the kind of deep-catalogue gem that rewards fans willing to dig into the layered, ambitious storytelling of DC's Bronze Age and beyond.
