Jade (Jennifer-Lynn Hayden) is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. She first appeared in All-Star Squadron #25 in September 1983, created by Roy Thomas and Jerry Ordway. Since the character's creation, she has appeared as a reoccurring member in both Green Lantern and Justice Society of America titles.
As one of the fraternal twin children (the other being Obsidian) of Alan Scott and Rose Canton, she was raised in a adoptive home but awakens her powers shortly into adulthood. Reuniting with her long-lost brother, she became a superhero and learns of her biological parents. The character would serve as a prominent member of Infinity Inc, the Outsiders, and the Green Lantern Corps alongside Kyle Rayner as a love interest. Subjected to a comic book death during the Rann-Thanagar War limited series, she is revived during Blackest Night and served as a member of the Justice League of America. Within DC Rebirth onward, the character reappears with much of her history intact and serves as a member of the Justice Society of America, wherein she serves as the interim chairwoman of the team.
Jade appeared in the second and third season of Stargirl on The CW network, portrayed by Ysa Penarejo.
