Star Sapphire (comics)
Star Sapphire is the name of several fictional characters in DC Comics; many of them are villainous, and all connected in origin. Within DC continuity, an immortal race of warrior women (the Zamarons) were depicted as having the ancient tradition of choosing physically identical mortals from across the cosmos to serve as the host body for their queen. The woman chosen to serve this queen is called ''Star Sapphire''. She is given the queen's symbolic weapon: a crystal resembling an actual star sapphire that grants the user powers similar to the power ring of Green Lanterns. In the 2000s the term came to refer to the Star Sapphires, an organization whose members in part include women previously depicted as the singular Star Sapphire in DC titles. Not clearly defined as superheroes or supervillains, the Star Sapphires debuted as a corps in ''Green Lantern'' (vol. 4) #20 (July 2007). They were created by writer Geoff Johns and artist Ethan Van Sciver. Fictional character biography ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Winky, Blinky, and Noddy are a trio of fictional comic book characters, created by writer Gardner Fox and artist E.E. Hibbard, who first appeared in books starring the Flash. Their names were taken from Wynken, Blynken, and Nod, although their appearance and characterization was a spoof on the Three Stooges. Noddy Moylan was based on Moe Howard, and often gave the other two a Stooges-style smack. Winky Boylan's red curly hair imitated Larry Fine's. Blinky Toylan's eyes were covered with a shock of hair, recalling Shemp Howard. The comic books frequently referred to them as the "Three Dimwits", or variants like the "Three Numbskulls", the "Three Dopes", or the "Three Idiots".Three Dimwits: Winky, Blinky, and Noddy at Hyperborea.org.
