Pandora is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. She is based on Pandora of Greek mythology.
She first appears in Flashpoint #5 (October 2011) and was created by Geoff Johns and Andy Kubert Since then, she subsequently makes a cameo appearance in every initial title of The New 52.
Pandora first appears in Flashpoint #5 (October 2011), the conclusion to the "Flashpoint" event. She is responsible for causing the Flash to merge three separate timelines (the DC Universe, the Wildstorm Universe and select Vertigo titles) in order to create a new universe that is seen in the publications of The New 52. Following, she had made a cameo appearance in the first issue of each initial New 52 title. Pandora was not named until January 2012, when Bob Harras posted a teaser on DC Comics' blog, stating "Her name is Pandora".
Pandora next appears where she has a dialogue with the Phantom Stranger. It is revealed that the two have a connection, via the Circle of Eternity, who cursed them to walk the Earth forever but unable to get involved.
The origins of Pandora and those who would become The Question and the Phantom Stranger are summoned to the Rock of Eternity by the Circle of Eternity. They are labeled as the "Trinity of Sin" and are each given a punishment. For opening a box and releasing the evil contents, Pandora was sentenced to an eternity of loneliness, pain, and being told she is evil. It is also revealed that she has re-obtained her box from A.R.G.U.S.'s Black Room, where it had been stored along with various other mystical items.
