Katma Tui
Few characters from the Silver Age carry as much weight in the cosmic corner of DC as Katma Tui, who burst onto the scene in Green Lantern #47 in 1966, conjured by the legendary team of John Broome and Gil Kane. She's a figure of genuine longevity — nearly five decades of appearances spanning Green Lantern, The Green Lantern Corps, and even a spotlight in Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe, that beloved snapshot of DC's pantheon. Her 57 catalog appearances include six key issues, a mark of real collector significance, and she shares her adventures with some of the most iconic names in the Corps: John Stewart, Kilowog, Arisia, Salakk, and Ch'p. If you're tracing the rich, character-driven history of DC's intergalactic mythology, Katma Tui is absolutely essential reading.
