Phantom Girl (real name Tinya Wazzo) is also known as Apparition, and is a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes in the 30th and 31st centuries. She has the power to turn intangible, allowing her to phase through solid objects as do all other natives of her home planet, Bgztl. Her mother is Winema Wazzo.[1]  Phantom Girl was ranked 96th in Comics Buyer's Guide's 100 Sexiest Women in Comics list.[2]  In the original pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths continuity, Phantom Girl is the fifth member to join the Legion and is a native of Bgztl, a planet that exists in the 4th Dimension. Like other Bgztlians, Phantom Girl has the ability to phase out of reality to become intangible. She can dematerialize while remaining visible, and pass through solid objects, like walls. Initially appearing along with Triplicate Girl and Saturn Girl in Action Comics #276 in the story "Supergirl's Three Super Girl-Friends", her first costume consisted of white tights and a white cape with a stylized P on the chest. Phantom Girl's powers serve her well as member of the Legion's Espionage Squad, and she is involved romantically with fellow Legionnaire Ultra Boy for many years. In this continuity, she has a brother, Gmya Wazzo.  

 

Following the Magic Wars, Earth falls under the covert control of the Dominators, and withdraws from the United Planets. sometime thereafter, Phantom Girl is thought to have been killed in a shuttle accident.  In reality, the time sorceress Glorith sends her to the 20th century where she is stripped of her memory of her true identity.  She assumes the name Phase and joins the interstellar law enforcement agency, L.E.G.I.O.N. A few years later, the members of the Dominators' highly classified "Batch SW6" escape captivity. It is first thought that the Batch SW6 are a group of teenage Legionnaire clones.  Later, they are revealed to be time-paradox duplicates, every bit as legitimate as their older counterparts. The Batch SW6 version of Tinya Wazzo eventually assumes the codename Apparition.
