Comic Appearances
A character named Miss Gzptlsnz had previously appeared in Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen. Ms. Gzptlsnz was a female fifth-dimensional imp who had a crush on Jimmy Olsen, although Mxyzptlk referred to her as his girfriend. The character was created by Jerry Siegel and Curt Swan, and first appeared in Jimmy Olsen #52 (April 1964). Unlike the human-appearing Ms. Gsptlsnz, Miss Gzptlsnz had similar implike proportions to Mxyzptlk. She reappeared in JLA #31 (July 1999) as the leader of a council of 5th dimensional imps passing judgement on Qwsp.
Gsptlsnz is later seen in "Countdown" when Mxyzptlk is pulled through a portal by Monarch, and again when Mxyzptlk escapes.
