Fictional character biography
Pre-Crisis history
Osira is an alien who crash-landed in ancient Egypt centuries ago alongside her husband Hefnakhti, with the two being worshiped as gods. However, the priest Anankh rebels against them and traps the two in a pyramid. In 1942, during World War II, Osira is freed after two tanks accidentally destroy the pyramid while fighting.
After learning that Hefnakhti died while attempting to escape the pyramid, Osira attempts to bring peace to the world once more, and comes into conflict with Wonder Woman. She kidnaps Steve Trevor, who resembles Hefnakhti, before Hefnakhti's spirit appears and appeases her.
