Read more about Arisia at: Wikipedia Official Site: D.C Comics Arisia Rrab is a fictional character, a superhero featured in comic books published by DC Comics. Arisia is a humanoid alien with golden-yellow skin, hair and eyes, and has pointed, elven ears. Arisia is named after the planet Arisia in the Lensman novels by E.E. Smith. Along with Eddore of Tront, she was created by writer Mike W. Barr as a tip of the hat to the groundbreaking series in his Tales of the Green Lantern Corps miniseries in 1981. Arisia is originally from the planet Graxos IV. Her father, Fentara, served as the Green Lantern of Sector 2815. Originally, Arisia is depicted as assuming the role of Green Lantern while still a teenager. Her age was later retcon in issue 13 of Green Lantern volume 4; revealing that "due to the elongated orbit around its two suns, thirteen years on Graxos IV were like two-hundred and forty on Earth." Arisia first appears in Tales of the Green Lantern Corps #1 (May 1981) as part of a large group of Green Lantern sent to thwart Krona and Nekron. She, Katma Tui, Salaak, Ch'p (who refers to her as the "big cutie"), and Kilowog all relocate to Earth after the Crisis on Infinite Earths. Once there, she adopts the secret identity of Cindy Simpson, and redesigns the uniforms of the team to better reflect their individual personalities. Arisia is first shown as having a huge crush on Hal Jordan, the Green Lantern of Sector 2814. After being stationed on Earth with Jordan, she subconsciously uses her power ring to age herself so that she and Jordan can be together. Though Hal Jordan ultimately returns Arisia's affections, it is some time before he comes to terms with her as an adult. Later, Arisia is among several Green Lanterns to lose their powers due to a disruption in the Main Battery on the planet Oa (the source from which the Green Lanterns draw their power). However, Arisia decides to remain on Earth with her boyfriend Hal and pursue a modeling career. Their relationship becomes strained as they adjust to the changes affecting the Corps, which eventually leads to them breaking up. |
