Looker (character)
Looker (Emily "Lia" Briggs) is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The character's first appearance was in 1985 in Batman & the Outsiders #25.
Looker appears in the Arrowverse series Black Lightning, portrayed by Sofia Vassilieva.
Looker made her first appearance in Batman & the Outsiders #25 (September 1985) and was created by Mike W. Barr and Jim Aparo.
Barr spoke in an open letter to fans on the creation of the character, stating:
When it was decided to put The Outsiders into their own book, a new member was obviously called for. I began kicking around ideas, and conceived a female character who possessed mental powers (an area covered by none of the other outsiders). She would also be very beautiful. The name looker suggested itself, and the character virtually fell into place of course you cant have a costumed character without a costume, so I got out some fashion magazines (The name Looker suggesting a glitzy, high fashion kind of approach) and cobbled a design together inspired by an actual dress and an actual swimsuit...
Emily Briggs was a mild-mannered bank teller who lived with her husband in Gotham City before being kidnapped by the people of Abyssia, a lost underground civilization, and rescued by the Outsiders. She eventually learns that she is part Abyssian and gains superpowers after Halley's Comet passed Earth, the process of which also makes her extremely physically attractive and self-confident.
After leaving Abyssia to its people, Emily returned with the Outsiders and joined their ranks as Looker. She had a short affair with team leader Geo-Force, but they eventually decide to break up.
Some time later, Looker receives a call for help from Abyssia and discovers that a despot has conquered it. She loses her powers in the process before regaining them and being targeted by the Mud Pack, a group of various villains using the Clayface name.
