HISTORY

Model and super-hero with animal powers, Mari ended up joining the Justice League of America under Aquaman's reorganization of the League. Later, after the League fell apart, she took a vacation, which was ruined by drug runners who killed her companions on the photo shoot.

She joined the Suicide Squad II to gain retribution for her friends, and ended up staying with them. She was particularly attracted to Bronze Tiger, but drifted away from the Squad after Ben began to lose his sanity. She later returned when Amanda Waller reformed the Squad, but left after she was severely wounded.

She met up with Animal Man for a time, worked briefly with the Justice League Task Force, then joined Checkmate, and later, the Ultramarines.
