Black Witch
Black Witch is a comic book character that first appeared in Adventure Comics #350
Mysa Nal trained on the planet called Sorcerer's World to learn the mystic arts. Her vast powers helped the Legion of Super-Heroes defeat Darkseid, after which she was offered membership and accepted.
ORIGIN
Enter the Witching World
To compensate for her inability to see the future, Mysa trained in the mystic arts on the planet Zerox, known as the 'Sorcerer's World', becoming an accomplished sorceress. Originally, she had red hair, but as she trained in magic, her hair and skin became chalk white and her eyes bright red.
She first appeared as the Hag, an apparently ancient magic user and an agent of the villainous Prince Evillo. When the Legion Of Super-Heroes fought Evillo, two mysterious "new" members (actually Star Boy and Dream Girl) cast a spell that restored her to her true form. It was later revealed that this transformation had been worked by the villainous wizard Mordru.
Vision of Legion
She joined the Legion after helping them defeat Darkseid in the famous Legion story, the Great Darkness Saga. Some years later, after leaving the Legion, she married the presumedly-reformed Mordru and lived with him on the planet Tharn, which was, at that point, subdued and invaded by Mordru's magics. She was subjected to mystical imprisonment and manipulation during this period until the Legionnaires returned looking for her and their comrade Rond Vidar.
It was this incarnation of the Legion's near defeat that led Mysa to take up arms against her husband, and she later rejoined the group. Right before Zero Hour, she was de-aged by Glorith to a teenager and appeared happy with the change. She assumed the codename Jewel and went underground with her fellow Legionnaires.
Mistress of magic
Mysa settled on Sorcerer's World and fell in love with Dragonmage. Mysa was also a physical vessel for the disembodied soul of Amethyst, one of the Lords of Order who is currently active in the present day DC Universe. Post-Threeboot, White Witch has appeared as a member of Mekt Ranzz's Wanderers. Her home planet is listed as "unknown." In Superman and the Legion of Super-Heroes, featuring the return of most of the pre-Crisis Legionnaires, it's been rumored that Spider Girl traded Mysa to Mordru in return for his staying off Earth. How this occurred is unknown, as is if she will be saved after the story arc ends.
During Legion of 3 Worlds storyline, Mysa was freed from Mordru's slavery. That enraged him so much that he joined Superman-Prime's Legion of Super-Villains and went on killing spree, claiming her back. After Prime killed Kinetix, Mordru gained all of her magical powers (and all magic of Earth-247 with her). Knowing that Mordru's now almost invincible and nothing would stop him, Mysa used incredibly powerful spell "Aufero Magus Infusco" and absorbed him with all his magical forces, thus becoming Black Witch, the most powerful sorcerer in 31st century and new ruler of Sorcerer's World.
