History:
The young girl called Windfall debuted as a villain, a member of the
Masters of Disaster. This band of mercenaries was led by her sister,
Becky (New-Wave). But none of these members (save New-Wave herself)
was truly evil. New-Wave's leadership was rather dictatorial and
each member had a different reason for following her.
Originally, the Masters were hired to kill Black Lightning. They
escaped after this job turned sour but soon took another job: to
kidnap Sapphire Stagg, Metamorpho's wife. Both times they clashed
with the Outsiders and both times, they escaped. With each contact,
Wendy's resolve deteriorated. She even began a sort of friendship
with the Outsiders' Halo.
Next, they allied with Baron Bedlam to overthrow Markovia. The
Outsiders were freed by their newest member, Looker, who
single-handedly defeated the Masters. Following this, Windfall
finally reached the end of her rope and defected. She wandered
around Markovia for a time and was captured and exposed as one of
Bedlam's former mercenaries. Soon, however, she was recaptured by
her teammates and cloned as well.
When the Masters of Disaster escaped from Markovia, they sent the
Windfall clone to infiltrate the Outsiders, who accepted her as a
full-fledged member. Batman was wise to this, however, and the
Masters were trapped. The clone was killed in a battle between she
and her predecessor. The original Windfall then joined the
Outsiders.
She remained with them until their tragic end. Later, after the
Outsiders had reformed, Wendy was approached by a girl she thought
was her friend, Halo. In fact this girl was Violet Harper, Halo's
evil predecessor. Violet convinced Windfall to join Eve's new Strike
Force Kobra. The Strike Force was easily decimated by the
Eradicator's group and Windfall realized that she had been duped.
Again, she rejoined the Outsiders. She remained with this second
team of Outsiders through the end of their recorded adventures.
Recently, she has been inexplicably spotted among the villains who
defended Zandia against Young Justice. The truth of her current
situation has not been revealed.
During her first tenure with the Outsiders, Wendy became enamored of
Gardner Grayle, the Atomic Knight. He seemed interested in her as
well, but the extent of their relationship has never been revealed.
Her former teammate, Shakedown, also had a crush on Windfall. He has
since been murdered by New-Wave.
