editTala is an evil mystical entity and leader of the Dark Circle.[1] Her agenda often consists of tricking mortals into doing evil deeds, or unleashing the apocalypse onto the modern world. She frequently confronts the Phantom Stranger and Doctor Thirteen by using her powers to enslave mortals. She frequently professes an attraction to the Stranger, trying to seduce him.

edit- Tala appears in Justice League Unlimited, voiced by Juliet Landau.[2] This version is a member of Project Cadmus in the second season and Gorilla Grodd's Secret Society in the third, serving as a magic specialist in both groups. After Lex Luthor takes control of the Society and imprisons Grodd, Tala swears allegiance to the former and attempts to form a relationship with him until he grows increasingly obsessed with resurrecting Brainiac and regaining his power. Spurned, she releases Grodd to incite a mutiny, but Luthor kills him and forces Tala to power a machine to revive Brainiac. While she dies in the process, she resurrects Darkseid instead as a final act of revenge.[3]
