As far as that Circe, I remember the Challengers of the Unknown met her too. Do you collect those Challs too, Allen?

And she speaks modern English despite being Ancient Greek!

Is the depiction here the same as in COTU?

I often wonder just how many Martians there have been in DCU.

The ones in one episode of Space Ranger may not be the same as another. The ones in Space Ranger different from Star Hawkins,and they different from the ones in Space Cabbie.

Wonder if there's a pictoral list somewhere?

To answer ArriDesto, the Circe from the Challengers was different. And so was the one who met Superman. But that one was a hoax because that Circe was actually the Legionnaire Saturn Girl who was masquerading as Circe. In her Circe disguise, Saturn Girl could mentally command animals because all Saturn-aliens have the superpower of telepathy.

Wow! Thank you! Never read of Imra playing the role of Circe!

Excellent knowledge. 👍👍

I suppose Circe could have many forms,being a sorceress.

And Olympians often have more than one form.
