Polaris (Lorna Dane) is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by Arnold Drake and Jim Steranko,[1] Polaris first appeared in The X-Men #49 (October 1968).[2] For the majority of her publication history, she has been a member of either the X-Men or one of its sister groups, such as X-Factor. In comics published from 1987 to 1989, she was possessed by a telepathic entity called Malice. In comics published from 2000 to 2001 she was a member of the Acolytes and Magneto's cabinet on Genosha. She was shown to be one of the few survivors of a genocide on the island carried out by Wild Sentinels.
A mutant, Polaris can control magnetism in a manner similar to Magneto, whom she long suspected to be her biological father. This relationship was confirmed in Uncanny X-Men #431 (November 2003).[3] She has also had a complicated long term relationship with the X-Man Havok, to whom she was engaged, and has been characterized as struggling with recurrent mental health issues.
Emma Dumont portrays Polaris in the television series The Gifted.
