Artemiz

Artemiz (most often referred to as Artemis) is a New God of Apokolips in the DC Comics universe.

A member of the Female Furies, Granny Goodness' cadre of female warriors, Artemiz is a fierce archer that uses her bow and arrows as a weapon, as well as her cyberpak, Unus, Secondus, and Tertius, a trio of ferocious cybernetic wolves. Artemiz was not one of the original Furies, but rather joined after Lashina was betrayed by Bernadeth and left on Earth. Granny Goodness recruited Artemiz into the Furies to fill the loss. During the battle with Suicide Squad, Artemiz battled Nightshade, who defeated her but didn't kill her. Granny Goodness, after Nightshade's boasting, told her she should have. Later, she joined the Furies as they battled Supergirl while searching for Twilight. She often bickered with Stompa, but got along well with the other Furies. Her keen senses are often helpful, and the Furies occasionally have her scout the area rather than stay with the team.

Tigress

Tigress is the name of three different DC Comics supervillains.

The original Tigress was a Golden Age villainess who battled Zatara. The second Tigress was a member of the Young All-Stars, who later became a villainess named the Huntress. The third Tigress is the daughter of the second Tigress, and is a member of the Injustice Society.

The first Golden Age Tigress was a thief/spy and foe of Zatara in the late 1930s. She debuted in Action Comics #1 (June 1938), and was created by Fred Guardineer.

She wore tiger-striped sweaters and ran gangs of thieves and murderers. Apparently, she had no powers.

The second Tigress is Paula Brooks. She was a member of the Young All-Stars and later became the villainous Huntress. She later married the Sportsmaster, and had a daughter, Artemis Crock, who carries on as the third Tigress.

Artemis Crock is the daughter of the Golden Age villains Paula Brooks and Crusher Crock. She had taken up a career in crime, modeled after that of her parents, but only after some years did she take on the mantle of Tigress.

Arisia

Arisia is a fictional character featured in comic books published by DC Comics. Arisia is a humanoid alien with golden-yellow skin, hair and eyes. She has pointed, elven ears.

Arisia is named after the planet Arisia in the Lensman novels by E.E. Smith, due to the resemblence between the Lensmen organisation and the Green Lantern Corps (Smith's Arisians could be compared to the Guardians of the Universe.)

Aquagirl

Aquagirl is the name of several fictional characters who were superheroes featured in comic books published by DC Comics. Although there have been four different characters bearing the name, only two are canonical, the most recognizable being Aqualad's Atlantean girlfriend.

Lisa Morel (first appearance: Adventure Comics (vol. 1) #266 (November 1959)) was among several violet-eyed Atlantean children who were born unable to adapt to the watery world, and would soon die. To save them, they were ejected in waterproof lifeboats to the surface, to live among land-dwellers. Lisa was adopted by the scientist Hugo Morel and his wife.

When Aquaman was in danger, her water-breathing and telepathic powers awakened. She made herself a costume identical to his, took on the name "Aquagirl" and fought alongside him. But her newfound powers were short-lived, and she permanently lost them. She is not considered to have been active as Aquagirl in current continuity.

Selena (first appearance: World's Finest Comics #133) was a young Poseidonis teenager who teamed up with Aquaman under the name "Aqua-Girl" in order to impress her boyfriend and become a superheroine. However, as with Lisa Morel, Selena only appeared once and was never mentioned again. She is also not considered to have been active as Aqua-Girl in current continuity.

Tula is the first canonical Aquagirl. After losing her parents soon after her birth, she is found and adopted by one of the royal families of Atlantis. Given the title of princess of Poseidonis, Tula is schooled in Atlantean traditions. She never leaves the royal palace until she meets Aqualad at age 15.

Tula sometimes helps Aqualad with missions during his time with the Teen Titans; eventually, she also becomes an honorary member. She takes the name Aquagirl to honor her boyfriend as well as Aquaman. When Aquaman leaves his throne to search for his then-missing wife Mera, Nakran takes over Atlantis as a dictator. His reign falls only when Tula leads a rebellion against him. Tula continues her life after this, resuming her life with Garth (Aqualad) when he returns to Atlantis. She continues to be an ally to Garth and the Teen Titans. She and Garth aid the Titans in bringing down the H.I.V.E. once and for all.

During the Crisis on Infinite Earths mini-series, Aquagirl is killed by the villain Chemo after she drowns in water that he has poisoned.

Years later, in the Tempest mini-series, a woman claiming to be Tula enters Garth's life. In truth, it is a doppelganger created by the villainous Slizzath as part of an elaborate plan to siphon Garth's mystical energies for his own dark purposes. Garth sees through the ruse and is able to defeat Slizzath, and finally gain a sense of closure about Tula's death. It is also at this time that Garth adopted a new identity as Tempest.

Most recently, Tula reappears in Teen Titans (vol. 3) issues 30 and 31. Aquagirl is brought back by Brother Blood - along with Hawk and Dove, Phantasm, and Kole - to fight against the Teen Titans. After being freed by Beast Boy and Raven, Kid Eternity is able to lay the deceased Titans back to rest.

Tula has a statue in the "hall of fallen Titans" at Titans Tower, alongside the original Hawk and Dove, Kole, and others.

Lorena Marquez is going on a date at the San Diego Zoo when an earthquake shakes the city and causes it to sink deep into the sea, killing thousands, including Lorena's entire family. She comes into contact with Aquaman, who nurses her back to health, while discovering that she has developed the ability to breathe underwater like an Atlantean.

The two manage to locate the other survivors of the quake, and Geist, the scientist responsible for the catastrophe. They have no choice but to begin rebuilding the city as 'Sub Diego'. When Ocean Master switches lives with Aquaman, Lorena assumes the identity of Aquagirl. After Aquaman exposes Ocean Master's scheme, Lorena keeps her Aquagirl costume, and the two carry on protecting 'Sub Diego'.

In the Titans Tomorrow timeline, Lorena, as Aquawoman, is a member of the Titans. It is revealed that she has developed telepathic powers which she had used to kill (or paralyze) former Titan member Garth.

Aquagirl is a member of the Teen Titans during the events of 52. She assisted Steel in launching an attack on Lexcorp when Natasha was captured by Luthor.

Amazing Grace

Amazing Grace is a fictional character, from DC Comics, part of Darkseid's Elite.

Amazing Grace lives among the lowlies of Apokolips. A loyal agent of Darkseid, she pretends to preach opposition to Darkseid's word and encourages them to revolt. When they do, they are easily defeated, thereby crushing their revolt and their spirits.

When Superman infiltrated Apokolips, trying to prove he was behind G. Gordon Godfrey's reign of terror on Earth, Grace was "captured" by Darkseid's troops and was to be thrown into the firepits; all to lure Superman out. He saved her, but he himself fell into the firepits. He survived, but with no memory or powers. Grace, on the behalf of Darkseid, seduced him, and convinced the man of steel that he was Darkseid's son. Superman was given his powers back when he allied with Darkseid, and he battled Orion, during which his memory came back. Grace still serves Darkseid among the denizens of Apokolips today. She first appeared in SUPERMAN (2nd series) #3.

Like her brother Glorious Godfrey, Grace is a master in mind manipulation, who uses those powers to subtly influence others.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III (1993)

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III is a 1993 live-action film, the second sequel to the 1990 live-action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film. This is the most cartoon-like of the three movies, but the turtles use their weapons more than in the second movie. A full- and wide-screen DVD version was released on September 3, 2002.

April O'Neil finds a scepter and is sent back in time to feudal Japan, and in her place, a man from feudal Japan comes to present New York City with the same scepter, but from his own time. The turtles take the scepter and travel back in time to save April. When the turtles arrive in feudal Japan, many people in a local village understand English because the village has strong trade relations with England. The turtles fight Lord Norinaga and the English trader Walker to stop a war.

The film was criticized by fans of the first and second films who said that it was too cartoony and that the plot was unrealistic and silly; to make matters worse, it also has the least combat. Notably, the turtles only fight three battles, only one of which features all four turtles. Critic Fred Topel called it a "Terrible conclusion of the trilogy."Some fans state that their only real complaint is the less-realistic costumes and puppetry of the turtles and Splinter.

Peter Laird has gone on to note in interviews that the fourth in the movie series will retcon the third movie out of existence, and base it in the continuity of the first film, and the portions of the second that made sense to him (the TMNT learning their origins and Shredder's death) much like Superman Returns is based on the first Superman movie and aspects of Superman II.

Released in 2,087 theatres, the film proved to be very popular at the box office, taking in $12,419,597 on its opening weekend in the United States. The film would gross $42,273,609 in the domestic market, accumulating more than double its budget of $21 million.

Although Corey Feldman returned to voice Donatello for this film, he did not provide his voice for the 2nd film.
Robbie Rist and Brian Tochi (who did the voices of Michaelangelo and Leonardo, respectively) are the only two voice actors to voice the same character throughout all three TMNT movies.
The scepter is quite possibily a nod to the "Sacred Sands of Time Scepter" from the original Eastman and Laird's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic series, from the crossover story with Dave Sim's Cerebus character.
The Shredder does not appear in this film.
This was the last Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film released by New Line Cinema and also the last live-action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film. (The fourth film will be released by Warner Bros. Pictures, The Weinstein Company and Imagi Animation Studios and will also be computer-animated. It should be noted that Time Warner owns both Warner Bros. and New Line.)
According to Troma Films creator Lloyd Kaufman in his book "Everything I Learned About Filmmaking I Learned From the Toxic Avenger", Kaufman says that New Line did not live up to their end of the contract and the film was not made. Kaufman has speculated that New Line bought the rights because they were in negotiations to make the sequels to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie and wanted to use the Toxic Crusaders movie as leverage against the owners of the rights to TMNT. Troma sued New Line and was awarded an undisclosed amount in damages.
