HISTORY 

Zelda "Torchy" Brown was an attractive, brave and confident young African-American woman who left her home in Mississippi to pursue her dream of succeed on Broadway. But instead, Torchy ended up working at a small Harlem hospital as a nursing assistant. She soon got her nursing degree and began working closely with Dr. Paul Hammond. The young woman and the doctor fell in love, but a plague of poisonings in the community, caused by the corrupt company Fuller Chemicals, prevented them from enjoying the moment. Paul tried to find a cure while Torchy searched for evidence to unmask Fuller, but she was discovered and exposed to a massive dose of the poisonous substance. On the brink of death, Paul tested an experimental cure on the young woman. Fuller sent some goons to finish off Torchy and when Paul got between them and his girl, they killed him. Torchy miraculously recovered, having gained extraordinary light powers with which the young woman easily defeated the thugs and, after mourning her beloved, she exposed Fuller and their criminal methods to public opinion, becoming a heroine. Shortly after, Torchy was recruited and trained by DANGER to become an operative. Circumstances led Torchy and former yakuza assassin Madame Claw to begin collaborating and they eventually became good friends and partners.
