Yuda is a character appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics.

The character first appeared in Krypton Chronicles #3 (November 1981), and was created by E. Nelson Bridwell and Curt Swan.

Yuda is one of the chief deities of ancient Krypton, associated with love and marriage. She also represented the two moons of Krypton and was commonly known as "the Mistress of the Moons". For this reason, when the moons Mithen and Wegthor came together in the sky, they were believed to represent marriage.

Her worship ended when Jaf-El introduced the monotheistic worship of Krypton's sun god Rao. Despite this, she was remembered in folklore and a statue of her was used in certain festivities.

Yuda in other media

Yuda Kal appears in Supergirl, portrayed by Sofia Vassilieva via her host Olivia.[7] This version is a Kryptonian goddess of life and birth worshipped by the Juru, the first people of Krypton. However, she was erased with Rao and the ways of science by modern Krypton, becoming feared as a dark, evil deity.
