The creators of the Green Lantern Corps, the Guardians of the Universe, had planned to create their successors, a race of new Guardians. The Guardians foresaw that their successors were destined to originate on the planet Earth, so they channeled their vast powers into the "Millennium Project", gathering ten individuals together, teaching them about the nature of the cosmos and endowing them with immortality and metahuman powers. One of these was Celia Windward, a young Jamaican woman living in Great Britain, to whom the Guardians gave the power to control electromagnetic energies.[1] She became Jet, and joined the other heroes the Guardians had made in the team named the New Guardians. Jet fought many foes, but contracted HIV fighting the "Hemo-Goblin". As her symptoms worsen into AIDS, Jet sacrifices herself to repel an alien invasion.[2]
Jet possesses the metahuman ability to manipulate electromagnetic energy. This enables her to generate heat and electricity, manipulate metal, see in ultraviolet and infrared vision, and fly via magnetic levitation.
