Emerald Empress (possibly Cera Kesh), alongside the other Fatal Five members, was among the supervillains in Superboy-Prime's Legion of Super-Villains. In "Legion of Super-Heroes Annual" 1 (2011), the Eye finds a new Empress on the planet of Orando. This young girl fights Shrinking Violet, Light Lass, Sun Boy, Sensor Girl and Gates of the Legion before being defeated by Violet. The girl was released from the Eye's control, but the Eye itself managed to flee the planet. The Emerald Empress appears as one of Max Lord's supervillains in "Justice League vs. Suicide Squad". It is revealed that she was part of the first Suicide Squad, along with Lobo, Johnny Sorrow, Rustam and Doctor Polaris. According to the year-spanning maxiseries "52" (2006), the Eye was once a real eye for the cosmic entity called "Ekron". But, somehow Emerald Empress got the Eye and got it to work for her. In the "52" weekly series, Lobo kept the eye in a box while watching it. Soon Starfire used it to stop villains from destroying an entire Space Sector. Lobo revealed that the Eye was part of the Emerald Head of Ekron, that was a member of the Green Lantern Corps, until driven insane by his space sector being destroyed. The Eye was an early prototype for the power rings. However, when the Eye was reintroduced in the "Legion Annual" of 2011, none of this was acknowledged. Rather, Ekron was referred to as a world where the Eye had once been worshipped as a god. The "52" explanation also neglects any existence of the Eye wielded by Garryn Bek of L.E.G.I.O.N. in the 21st century. The Emerald Empress has no innate superpowers of her own, but wields the Emerald Eye of Ekron. Her connection to the object gives her direct access to its immense mystical power, which she employs in a variety of ways. The object itself flies in the air and is virtually indestructible. Her command over the Eye gives her the ability to fly and survive in the vacuum of space, generate protective force fields around herself, project blasts strong enough to hurt Superboy, create energy constructs, hypnotize others, and teleport. It has also given her superhuman strength on more than one occasion, and even made herself grow to giant size. In a recent appearance, the Eye gave the Empress the power to cast illusions or alter reality, rebuilding the planet of Orando into a medieval-like society as she envisioned it.
