Ayla Ranzz
Ayla Ranzz, also known as Lightning Lass, Light Lass, Gossamer, and Spark, is a character appearing in media published by DC Comics. She is a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes in the 30th and 31st centuries, as well as the sister of Lightning Lad and Lightning Lord.
There have been three versions of Ayla since her original debut; these versions are separated by the events of both the Zero Hour: Crisis in Time! and Infinite Crisis limited series.
Ayla has made limited appearances in media outside comics, including the animated series Superman: The Animated Series and Legion of Super Heroes and the animated film Justice League vs. the Fatal Five.
Ayla Ranzz first appeared in Adventure Comics #308 (May 1963). She is the twin sister of fellow Legionnaire Garth (Lightning Lad) and the younger sister of the villainous Mekt (Lightning Lord). All three gained electrical superpowers after being attacked by creatures called Lightning Beasts on the planet Korbal. She originally joins the Legion disguised as her brother Lightning Lad, claiming to be him resurrected after his apparent death at the hands of Zaryan. Ayla is quickly discovered to be an imposter, but is allowed to join the Legion as Lightning Lass. Later, Ayla gains gravity manipulation powers from Dream Girl and becomes known as Light Lass.
Years later, Ayla leaves the Legion, disillusioned with her Legion career and having ended a lengthy romance with fellow Legionnaire Timber Wolf. She broke up with him following a misunderstanding when she saw Timber Wolf embracing her sister-in-law Saturn Girl when both were stranded on a frozen asteroid. After returning to Winath, Ayla is kidnapped by her brother Lightning Lord and a faction of the Legion of Super-Villains. When Ayla refuses to join them, her brother tried to kill her, though she survives and discovers that her original lightning powers had been restored. After the LSV is defeated, Ayla rejoins the Legion as Lightning Lass.
During the "Five Year Later" storyline, Ayla is revealed to be in a relationship with Shrinking Violet.
During the "Five Year Gap" following the Magic Wars, Earth falls under the control of the Dominators and withdraws from the United Planets. A few years later, the Dominators' classified "Batch SW6", temporal clones of the Legionnaires, escape captivity. After Earth is destroyed in a disaster, a few dozen surviving cities and their inhabitants reconstitute their world as New Earth, and the SW6 Light Lass assumes the code name Spark.
Ayla, known as Spark, originally joined the Legion as a replacement for her twin brother Live Wire, as their planet Winath decided to choose her rather than Garth, who had been classified as a runaway. Eventually, the "one member per planet" restriction was lifted, and he rejoined.
