Captain Jillian "Cowgirl" Pearlman, USAF, is a fictional character in the DC Comics Universe. She was created by writer Geoff Johns and artist Carlos Pacheco as a rival to Carol Ferris for the romantic affections of Hal Jordan.
Jillian Pearlman first appeared in Green Lantern vol. 4 #1 (May 2005), and was created by Geoff Johns and Carlos Pacheco.
The fourth child of a Texan rancher, Jillian enlists in the United States Air Force after she turns nineteen. Her sharp wit, attitude, and Texan accent earn her the call sign "Cowgirl".[1] Jillian meets Hal Jordan's alter-ego, Green Lantern, after he saves her from a plane crash, and the two soon fall in love.[2]
During the lost year, Cowgirl, Jordan, and Shane Sellers are captured by terrorists.[3] After escaping, the three return to active duty and are instructed to undergo therapy, but refuse.[4][5][6]
When the Star Sapphire gem resurfaces, it attacks Cowgirl and converts her into a Star Sapphire before Jordan frees her.[7][8][9][10]
Following The New 52 continuity reboot, Cowgirl is reintroduced in DC Retroactive, a collection of independent stories set in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s.[11]
