The Silver Sorceress is a DC Comics character and member of the Champions of Angor with the alter ego of Laura Cynthia Neilsen. She first appeared in Justice League of America #87, (February 1971), and is an homage to the Scarlet Witch. As her name suggests, she possesses magical powers which have become more advanced over time.

Fictional character biography

[edit]

The Silver Sorceress, Blue Jay, and Wandjina (characters based on Marvel's Scarlet Witch, Yellowjacket and Thor, respectively) are the only survivors of a nuclear holocaust on an alternate Earth. They battle the Justice League before becoming their allies.[1]

Silver Sorceress is later killed by Dreamslayer and buried on the island Kooey Kooey Kooey.

Powers and abilities

[edit]

Silver Sorceress is a magic user of advanced abilities. While she had to use a combination of magic and technology to create the original doorway from Angor to that of the Justice League, she is later able to do so with magic alone.
