Ed's Notes: So he likes the big girls, huh? ;) Another interesting concept for a hero that might have made a m ore stereotypical villain. I'm not sure how being an escape artist helps you fight crime, but I could see ESCAPING FRO PRISON to be a useful skill for a villain. Although... It's not like prisons in the DC Universe are that hard to escape from anyway, it seems. LOL. 2nd Edition sources varyingly omit the Multi-Cube, Mother Box, Signal Device and Buddy (Oberon). The Apokolips Sourcebook gives his Scientist:7, but no other sources do, so I believe this was in error.

Ed's Notes: I like her a LOT better than Mr. Miracle. He's a master of escaping, she a master of KICKING THE EVERLOVING SHIT OF PEOPLE.
