Jade appeared in the second and third season of Stargirl on The CW network, portrayed by Ysa Penarejo.
Creation
Thomas spoke on the genesis of the character stating
"Dann and I decided that Alan Scott, a.k.a. Green Lantern, would have two kids in the new group--twins, no less. Coming up with Jade was the easy part: we loved (and figured our pubescent male readers would drool over) the idea of a green-skinned girl, who possessed from birth the powers her father gained only by slipping on a magic ring which had obviously affected his genes."
Background
Jade is the daughter of Alan Scott (the original Green Lantern), and Rose Canton / Thorn. Her twin brother is Todd Rice, a.k.a. Obsidian.
Jade is a founding member of Infinity, Inc. She has worked with the Justice League and the Justice Society of America. She is also a member and leader of the Outsiders. After being given a power ring (a spare one), she joined the Green Lantern Corps. The Green Lantern Corps had been resurrected and Jade was the first female Green Lantern from Earth.
Jade's romantic interests are Henry King and Kyle Rayner. She was ranked 34th in Comics Buyer's Guide's "100 Sexiest Women in Comics" list.
Fictional character biography
Jade is the daughter of Green Lantern Alan Scott and the villain Thorn and sister of Todd Rice / Obsidian. Thorn fears that she will harm her children, so she gives them up for adoption, with Jade being adopted by a couple in Milwaukee. After reuniting as teenagers, Jade and Obsidian become superheroes and founding members of Infinity, Inc.
As a civilian, Jade becomes a model, photographer, and roommate and girlfriend of Kyle Rayner. After she loses her powers in a battle with Starheart, Kyle gives her a spare Green Lantern power ring, inducting her into the Green Lantern Corps. After becoming Ion, Kyle restores Jade's powers, with John Stewart gaining her ring. After breaking up with Kyle, Jade becomes the leader of the Outsiders.
In Rann–Thanagar War, Jade is killed while trying to prevent Alexander Luthor Jr. from recreating the multiverse.
