Isis (DC Comics)

The first rendition of the character, Andrea Thomas, is a high school teacher who possesses powers linked to ancient Egyptian mythology.

She is a superhero of Egyptian or Kahndaqi heritage and she holds a prominent role as Black Adam's love interest, advisor, and Queen of Kahndaw.

The Arrowverse television series Legends of Tomorrow introduces a new incarnation of the character named Zari Tomaz, portrayed by Tala Ashe.

After the fourth season, another version of the character (also portrayed by Ashe) is introduced after an in-universe timeline change: Zari Tarazi, a social media influencer.

The Adrianna Tomaz version of the character appears in the DC Extended Universe film Black Adam (2022), portrayed by Sarah Shahi.

The television series The Secrets of Isis stars Joanna Cameron as Andrea Thomas, a high school science teacher who draws power from her namesake.

Isis later appeared in animated form on Filmation's Tarzan and the Super 7 show in 1980, as part of a segment called The Freedom Force.

However, upon being freed by Black Adam and witnessing his potential for positive change, Adrianna fearlessly expressed her belief in his ability to transform their country for the better.

Additionally, her control over nature was intricately linked to her emotional state, such that rain would fall indoors when she was sad, and flowers would bloom when she experienced joy.

"[2] During their endeavors, Isis successfully located her brother Amon, who had suffered torment and physical impairment due to his resistance against Intergang's criminal religious cult and numerous escape attempts.

Additionally, during a charity dinner, Osiris formed a bond with Sobek, a humanoid crocodile who escaped from Doctor Sivana's lab.

Amanda Waller, skeptical of the Black Marvels' intentions, formed a new Suicide Squad and dispatched Persuader to attack Isis with a radioactive ax.

[11] He later successfully does so by channeling the power of Captain Marvel Jr.[12] However, Osiris' actions corrupt Isis' spirit, causing her to develop an evil split personality.

In this new timeline, Adrianna Tomaz is a young woman who, by fighting specifically against Kahndaq's evil rule, is opposed to her brother Amon entering The Sons of Adam terrorist group.

Mister Mind and Doctor Sivana recruit Black Adam into the Monster Society of Evil by tempting him with the power of the Darklands, which could resurrect them.

To activate these powers, Isis usually is shown reciting a rhyming chant (the most frequent being "Oh zephyr winds that blow on high, lift me now so I can fly!").

As an ordinary human, Adrianna demonstrates proficiency in diplomacy, politics, and leadership whose progressive ideals improved the welfare of Kahndaq and whose popularity exceeded her younger brother as a leader.
