Windfall[]

Windfall (Wendy Jones) was a young aerokinetic metahuman who gained her powers after her mother let her company perform prenatal DNA experiments on her and her sister Becky, causing Becky to eventually kill their mother in revenge later in life. Created by writer Mike W. Barr and artist Jim Aparo, she first appeared in Batman and the Outsiders #9 (April 1984).

Originally a member of the Masters of Disaster and an enemy of the Outsiders, Windfall eventually joined the latter group before leaving them to attend college. At one point during school, Wendy was invited to a fraternity party and date-raped by members of the fraternity after they spiked her drink with flunitrazepam. After taking turns with Wendy, the fraternity members took pictures and posted them on the Internet, while the local district attorney, the father of one of the fraternity members who ruined her, refused to make a case for Wendy due to her past as a supervillainess. As a result of the scandal, the college Wendy attended expelled her to avoid scrutiny, causing Wendy to return to the college and kill the fraternity members who ruined her by removing the air from their fraternity house and suffocating all the residents to death. Wendy was later incarcerated in Belle Reve for her murders before eventually being recruited by Amanda Waller for the Suicide Squad.

During a mission to the Middle East, the General betrayed the team and led a mutiny against them as well. After trying to make an air wall to protect the group from the attacks from Chemo, Windfall could not maintain the wall and was reduced to a skeleton.

Windfall in other media[]

  • Windfall appears in the DC Nation Shorts: Thunder and Lightning episode "Lightning Under the Weather".
  • A character loosely based on Windfall named Wendy Hernandez appears in Black Lightning, portrayed by Madison Bailey. Introduced in the episode "The Book of Consequences: Chapter Two: Black Jesus Blues", this version is a teenage metahuman who acquired her powers after being exposed to the drug "Green Light" 30 years prior before she was captured by the A.S.A. and put into a stasis pod. After being accidentally freed in the present, she escapes and wanders Freeland in a delirious state before Black Lightning subdues her, after which she elects to return to her pod voluntarily.
  • Wendy Jones appears in Young Justice: Outsiders, voiced by Zehra Fazal.[1] This version is an Australian teenager who was previously captured by a metahuman trafficking ring before being rescued by the Team and coming to reside at the Meta-Human Youth Center in Taos, New Mexico. As of a flashback depicted in the episode "Volatile", she has joined the Outsiders.
