History

Knockout was a former Female Fury from Apokolips. She first appeared shortly after Superboy moved to Hawaii. [1] Using her superstrength, she fought and flirted with Superboy just for the fun of it. Her hidden identity was that of a super strong stripper who worked at a club called the BoomBoom Room. Later, she was recruited to join Amanda Waller's Suicide Squad for an attack against the international crime cartel Silicon Dragons. Knockout was presumably killed during the mission when she was left behind with King Shark and the base exploded. [2]. She turned up later alive and joined Superboy in a fight against Valor (although she tumbled with the Kid as well during the fight). [3]. She turned back up shortly thereafter and teamed up with Superboy, battling across Hawaii in several of his adventures. Her past soon caught up with her then. It was revealed then that she was originally from Apokolips, one of Granny Goodness's Female Furies. After Big Barda ran off with Mister Miracle, Knockout decided she had had enough of the Furies. During a punishment where she was chained up on the walls of the Fire Pits, she broke her chains and leapt into the fires (after seeing Himon, whom she thought was a halucination, do so). As she did so, a Boom Tube opened and took her to Hawaii. [4]

The Female Furies arrived on Hawaii to reclaim Knockout. A huge battle ensued with Superboy, Knockout, and a small squad of police officers on one side and the Furies on the other. The Furies were only driven off when Dubbilex used his mental abilities to convince them that Knockout had died in the battle. The police discovered that the one police officer who was killed in the battle was actually struck down by Knockout just because he was in her way. The police attempted to bring her in, but Superboy refused to believe she was guilty, causing the two to briefly be on the run from the law. The two encountered an explorer named Victor Volcaneum. Knockout wanted Superboy to kill him and fully become her lapdog, but the Kid refused. So Knockout killed him instead, revealing her true colors as last. Superboy managed to defeat her and bring her into custody. [5]

She was shown in maximum security a couple more times, but did not escape during the rest of the series' run.

At some point, Knockout finally managed to break loose, and joined up with the Society, as seen in Villains United. In that book, she was revealed to have joined the Society as a mole at the request of her lover, Scandal Savage, a member of the Secret Six.
