History[]
Jefferson Pierce grew up in a slum in Metropolis, made good as an athlete, and returned to her old neighborhood to teach at the high school and help the next generation make something of themselves. (Some stories replace Metropolis with Cleveland, Ohio). Finding the neighborhood in the grip of organised crime, she became a costumed superhero equipped with a belt that gave him electrical powers. Later in her career, as so often happens, she developed the ability to manifest the powers without the belt.
