A young valley girl with electrical-based mutant powers, Stinger was a member of the Alliance of Evil, Apocalypse's original strike force.[3] Because of her youth, Stinger often handled situations recklessly, as seen when she accidentally killed Source's girlfriend, Susan.[4]
Apocalypse would regularly have the members of the Alliance take large doses of Source's mutant enhancement energies. As a result each of the members' powers, including Stinger's, had massively increased strength. The drawback was that the Source's mutant powers of enhancement were very addictive, making the receiver crave/need the energies to survive. Stinger continued to feel the ramifications of her addiction even after Source's death.[citation needed]
During their battles with X-Factor, Stinger often flirted with Angel, much to his annoyance. Stinger stayed with the Alliance of Evil when they defied the Mutant Registration Act,[5] and later battled the New Mutants with the team.[6]
Wendy was among the mutants who kept their powers after M-Day.[1] She later joined the mutants on Utopia, the X-Men's new home base, feeling that she had no choice but to live among her kind.[7]
Fearing rumors of an impending attack, and feeling isolated,[7] she sought reassurance from Iceman who admitted to having been attracted to her, even in their initial confrontations. Shooting off a joke to lighten the mood, Iceman inadvertently offended her, leading her to take Dr. Kavita Rao hostage in an attempt to leave the island. Only willing to negotiate with Iceman, he eventually talked her down, defusing the situation. Later, the two were seen having a picnic and enjoying each others' company.[1] Before the Nimrods invaded the island, Stinger was among the mutants gathered to listen to Cyclops' speech declaring them all X-Men.[8]
Following the establishment of a new mutant nation in Krakoa, Stinger relocated to the mutant-only island. She was the first mutant of this new society to get pregnant.[9]Attributes
Powers
Stinger was a mutant and was stated to be a Level 3 Threat by Cable.[6]
- Electricity Generation: Stinger's body can build, store, and discharge bio-electricity. Most often she released electricity from her hands because it allowed her to better focus and aim. She was able to release blasts of different strength, from minuscule small static to staggering lightning-like devastating bolts.[citation needed]
