Jill Carlyle

Debuting in the pages of Stars and S.T.R.I.P.E. #9 in 2000, Jill Carlyle is a Modern Age DC creation from the fertile imagination of Geoff Johns and Scott Kolins — two names synonymous with some of the era's most celebrated superhero storytelling. Over a span stretching into 2021, she's kept remarkable company, sharing adventures with icons like Green Lantern, The Flash, Hourman, and Courtney Whitmore, as well as the enigmatic Crimson Avenger. Her appearances are concentrated in prestige corners of the DC universe — JSA and landmark special editions like Infinite Crisis Companion — marking her as a character woven into the fabric of DC's legacy hero mythology rather than its fringes. With a modest but meaningful footprint across two decades, Jill Carlyle is exactly the kind of deep-cut Modern Age figure that rewards the curious collector who loves discovering the connective tissue of the DC universe.
