Biography
Jillian is the daughter of retired super heroes Atom Bomb and Magma Girl, and is the older sister of Justin Summers. Growing up in Golden Bay City, the siblings have always been very close. When she manifested her super heat-based powers while the two were in high school, Justin supported her by keeping it secret from their classmates. With his help, she learned to control her abilities and since Justin is a talented artist, she asked him to create her first Sunstar costume. Jillian was the first person Justin came out to when he realized he was gay. Together the pair kept each other's secrets and formed an unbreakable bond. She has always been supportive of her brother and she stood by Justin the day he came out to their parents.

Sunstar first came into the spotlight as a teenager when she heroically and selflessly protected the Golden Bay Bridge. Saving the landmark and everyone on it from an icy destruction by the villain Cold Snap, she received the nickname “Golden Bay’s Shining Star!” Her brave actions soon grabbed the attention of local hero, Captain Cosmos. It wasn’t long before she signed up with the World Hero Organization and was crime-fighting along side some of the city’s greatest defenders.

At the request of W.H.O., Sunstar was paired-up with local hero, Blue Comet (aka Derek Maxwell), following Captain Cosmos' retirement. The "Cosmic Crusaders" were then named his successors and inherited his job of patrolling Golden Bay City. Athough the two quickly became best-friends through their many adventures they didn't spend much time together outside of their super hero personas.

Then one day Sunstar was introduced to the "Operation Super-Couples" by her W.H.O. agent, Mr. Agnew. He informed her that, due to flailing merchandise sales, certain W.H.O. heroes were being urged to have public "romances" with each other in order to help boost W.H.O.'s profile and their careers. Based on demographic research, Agnew insisted on pairing her with Zap-Man, the incredibly handsome yet, obnoxious, electric-powered hero.

Jillian was not happy. Like many others, she could not stand Zap-Man's arrogant personality. Frustrated, she turned to her best-friend Blue Comet, who was in the midst of struggling with staying in the closet. Wanting to keep his orientation a secret as well as wanting to help her, Blue Comet proposed that she could avoid the forced pairing with Zap-Man by having the public "romance" with him instead. Realizing the advantages outweighed the disadvantages, the friends agreed to enlist in the program as a couple.
