Isis, also known as Adrianna Tomaz, is a DC Comics character who first appeared in *52* #3 (2006). She is primarily associated with the character Black Adam, serving as his wife and a powerful force for good in his life.

Adrianna Tomaz is presented as a refugee enslaved and presented to Black Adam as a gift. Rather than accepting her as such, Adam is moved by her courage and outspokenness, freeing her and sharing his power with her, transforming her into the goddess-like Isis. This grants her abilities like control over nature and the elements.

Isis's presence softens Black Adam's often brutal methods of justice, and together they strive to bring peace to Kahndaq. However, her efforts and life are tragically cut short. Her death has a profound and lasting impact on Black Adam, fueling his rage and actions in subsequent storylines. While originally existing in DC comic books, Isis has seen adaptation into other forms of media.
