Beatriz Bonilla da Costa had originally been bequeathed with her powers due to Brazilian mysticism. She was the President of Wayne Enterprises' Brazilian Branch. She has served as a member of the Global Guardians, Checkmate, the Super Buddies, and numerous incarnations of the Justice League, most prominently during the International years.
Origin
A native born Brazilian, Beatriz da Costa started her superhero career with the Super Friends. Later she joined the Global Guardians. After the Global Guardians lost United Nation's funding, she and her best friend, Ice, joined the Justice League International. It is in this version of the League that Beatriz changes her name to Fire. Her superpowers become even stronger while she is with the League ,and she gains the ability to completely cover her body in green flame. During this time, she trained in hand to hand combat with Big Barda. Fire stayed with the League when it turned into the Justice League of America. When the League fought Doomsday, Beatriz was so seriously injured that she lost her powers for some time.Fire and Ice stayed best friends, and Fire became a big-sister role of Ice, watching out and taking care of her. A big source of problems between the friends was Ice's interest in Guy Gardner. Fire felt he was no good for someone as kind as Ice. This becomes irrelevant when Ice is killed by Overmaster.
When the league disbanded, Fire went back to Brazil for a while. She even considers retiring from hero work. This doesn't last and she joins a new group called the Super Buddies. During this time, she makes an attempt to save Ice's spirit from hell(which failed). After the Super Buddies disbanded, Fire is recruited by the Checkmate Organization. Almost every League Fire was recruited into was funded by Maxwell Lord. Later Maxwell kills Blue Beetle a, long time friend and teammate of Fire's. Fire, Booster Gold, and Guy Gardner begin an investigation to find the connection between Maxwell and Blue Beetle's death.
