☆ Finding Zatara and Stage CareerZatanna became a successful stage illusionist before she discovered her true magical powers while investigating the disappearance of her father. On her quest, she asked help of various heroes including Hawkman and Hawkgirl, Atom, Green Lantern, and Elongated Man. Eventually, Zatanna located her father in the world of Kharma, where she traveled to alongside magical duplicates of the heroes she met in her journey and was finally reunited with her father, who was forced to stay away from her due to a spell from the evil sorceress, Allura.

Zatanna then continued her career as a stage magician and not much later, she met other notable heroes such as The Flash, Supergirl and Green Arrow. As she pursued her stage career, she hired Jeff Sloane, an agent who would soon become a very close friend, going on various adventures with her. Shortly after finding Jeff, Allura attacked them by possessing Zatara. Zatanna and Jeff had to overcome several obstacles on other dimensions until they returned to Earth and defeated Allura for good.

☆ Justice League of AmericaAs a member of the Justice League, Zatanna's first case was the mystery behind her new costume and her mother's true identity. After learning that her amnesia and the new costume were the result of her mother attempting to establish a connection with her, Zatanna and her father tracked Sindella to the ancient city of the Hidden Ones, with assistance from the Justice League. There, Zatanna learned that her mother didn't die in a car accident, but was abducted by her own people and taken back to the secret city, as they needed her powers for their civilization to thrive. Unfortunately, their reunion was short-lived as Sindella sacrificed herself to save Zatanna from the same fate as hers.

After a proper funeral for her mother, Zatanna proved vital in the defeat of the Secret Society of Super-Villains, when she uncovered their plan of switching identities with members of the Justice League, by disguising herself as Star Sapphire. Afterwards, Zatanna teamed-up with Superman in order to understand his vulnerability to magic and later, Zatanna teamed-up with Batman to clear a faith-healer's name. Finally and in order to move out of her parents' shadows, Zatanna decided to switch to a new costume one more time, making this version closer to her own personality and identity.
