The Silver Sorceress is a DC Comics character and member of the Champions of Angor. She is a powerful magic user with various abilities, despite being color-blind. She is an homage to the Scarlet Witch.

The Silver Sorceress was added to the Justice League International alongside Blue Jay following the death of Wandjina (a character based on Marvel's Thor). The three had come from an alternate Earth, the only survivors of a nuclear holocaust. They had attempted to destroy this Earth's stockpile of nuclear weapons, before being confronted by the Justice League and the Rocket Reds.

Later, the Sorceress had the pleasure of meeting and rescuing one of the few survivors of her world, a celebrity entertainer known as Mitch Wacky.

She remained with the team as an active member until her death at the hands of Dreamslayer, one of the entities who had destroyed her old world. While fighting mentally-enslaved humans on the mobile island of KooeyKooeyKooey she was hit with an arrow in the stomach. While dying, she managed to subdue Dreamslayer, temporarily ending his threat.
