The Silver Lady was a Soviet agent who went to Cape Canaveral, Florida, and posed as a celebrity, using television to somehow perform mass hypnosis or mind control on people in the region. She managed to get military engineers to sabotage the Titan missiles and launch them at strategic targets. Fortunately, the rockets were stopped by the hero Atoman. However, the Silver Lady managed to get the nuclear crussader to return her behind the Iron Curtain, causing Atoman not a little problem.
POWERS & WEAPONS
Her power allowed her to easily dominate the minds of almost anyone who saw her. Her skin was covered in a silver-looking material that made her exceptionally tough. Despite being trained by the KGB, Venera preferred to use her power to manipulate minds rather than engage in physical combat.
