Dr. Stacy and Nightbird are two sides of the same coin. Day -- and night. Get rid of one -- and the other is unbalanced.

History
Gwen Stacy's history is presumably similar to her Earth-616 counterpart's. She was a friend of Harry Osborn. When she broke up with Harry, this among other reasons led him to a downward spiral into drug use, which eventually placed him a coma. Gwen blamed herself for Harry's condition. She later attended a candlelight vigil for the Falcon following his murder at the hands of the Goblin.[4]
She attended Capitol State University where she received the unwanted infatuation of Professor Miles Warren. Gwen ignored Warren at first, but when things got out of hand, she told her adviser, who confronted Warren. Warren ended up losing his job and his reputation. Warren went made and became the Jackal. After burning down part of CSU, Gwen and Nighthawk fought him, and he ended up in Ravencroft Asylum but escaped after a riot in the prison.[2]
After her father George Stacy died, Gwen was trained by the hero Nighthawk and became a hero herself going by the name Nightbird. She also became a doctor of psychiatry who helped inmates at Ravencroft Asylum.[1] While investigating the death of retired cop Nick Manolis, Gwen discovered a calling card left at the murders of other people and realized that the people killed were people she either knew or had contact with. Gwen feared it was Warren and went to the old CSU library, believing him to be there. After arriving, she was attacked by someone dressed in a Jackal costume. Gwen discovered that the Jackal was actually Flash Thompson who was obsessed with her. To protect her, Flash killed Warren and then began killing other people connected to her so he could have Gwen all to himself. After talking Flash down, she knocked him out with a drug and turned him into the police.[2]
When the Goblin staged a takeover of Ravencroft, he took Gwen hostage. When Nighthawk arrived to retake the prison, the Goblin tried to break Nighthawk by exposing Gwen to his Goblin Gas and pushing her off a high place. Nighthawk rescued Gwen, but the Goblin Gas drove her insane, causing her to fight Nighthawk and proclaiming that they were wrong about crime. Nighthawk eventually subdued her and took back the prison.[1]
As her reality was about to be destroyed, Gwen was rescued by the timeslipping woman who became known as Finale the Ultimate Artist.[5] She was saved along with five other villains from dying universes, forming the Terminal Six, to serve her plot of becoming the ultimate meme.
When Finale attempted to alter history to create temporal offshoots of herself, her shadow form was interrupted, and in place of Finale, it was Ghost Spider (Gwen Stacy)'s form who was cast into time as multiple avatars (causing massive alterations to Earth-65). Infuriated, Finale demanded that the Terminal Six track and kill those new Gwens. She demoted the Six's leader Dr. Cephalopod, and included Nightbird as new leader of the team.[6]

Dr. Cephalopod sharing knowledge to Nightbird
While Nightbird and Cephalopod, the last Terminal Six, were preparing to kill the last template, Gwen Jones/Captain Marvel, they were attacked by Ghost-Spider and her variants. Cephalopod was targeted by Thorgwen and Iron G.W.E.N. (Toni Stacy), but their bickering allowed him and Nightbird to escape.
Before attacking Captain Marvel at the roof of the Daily Bugle Building, Cephalopod shared with Nightbird information he had acquired from the temporal profiles, which she could spread to others. Nightbird used that intel by similarly sharing it to Captain Marvel, revealing to her her true purpose and leading the Kree Supreme Intelligence to overload Marvel's Nega-Bands. After Marvel fled upwards, to detonate as far away as possible from the city surrounding her, Nightbird returned to her senses and came to regret her actions. She decided to join her variants and turn on Finale.[3]Attributes
