Terra

Terra's History

Terra is a name used by three different characters from the DC Universe.

The first one is Tara Markov, a super-hero with the power of geo-kinesis. Born the illegitimate daughter to King Viktor of Markovia, her half-brother is Geo-Force. Unable to stay at home, she became a mercenary and began working with Deathstroke, who used her to infiltrate the Teen Titans. She eventually developed a relationship with Beast Boy and ultimately died betraying them. In the New 52 reboot, Markov became a member of the Ravagers.

There was a second Terra/Tara Markov in the Team Titans timeline, created using the original Tara's DNA. She joined the regular Titans, but was eventually killed by Black Adam during World War III.

There is also a third Terra named Atlee, an alien from Strata who has taken this name fighting alongside Power Girl.

Terra was created by Marv Wolfman and George Perez, first appearing in New Teen Titans #26 (1982).
