Ladybug

After immigrating with her parents to the United States from San Salvador, and without any friends, 14-year-old Rosibel Rivera spent the summer working on her parents' honey farm, Big Bee Ranch. It was here she met Rick Raleigh, a local assistant district attorney who had a great interest in bees. What Rosibel did not know at the time was that Mr. Raleigh was the masked hero known as Red Bee and that her father, Miguel, was secretly helping Raleigh train his crime-fighting bees. When a group of local gangsters vandalized the farm to extort the Riveras family for protection money, they were quickly arrested. However, a corrupt police chief had the criminals freed and the charges dropped. Fortunately, a frustrated Red Bee went into action and not only proved the gangsters' guilt, but also exposed the corrupt police chief This was Rosibel's first sighting of the Red Bee, and she became an instant and loyal fan of the masked hero of Superior City. Soon after, Miguel and Ana offered their honey farm as a hideout and base of operations for Red Bee. Ono day, Rosibel stumbled upon Red Bee's hideout, where she was accidentally exposed to a device confiscated from Red Bee's nemesis, Professor Pollen. The device shrunk Rosibel to the size of a ladybug. Fortunately, Red Bee was able to reverse its effects and help Rosibel return to normal size before the device was destroyed. However, Rosibel was left with the ability to shrink at will. Rosibel built a suit with wings that enabled her to fly at her small size and became Red Bee's sidekick, Ladybug. Although insecure herself. Ladybug proved to be a motivator and morale booster for Red Bee, who often questioned his own abilities. After only a few adventures, Ladybug vanished.

The accident that Rosibel survived gave her the ability to shrink to the size of a ladybug and still retain her normal strength. With her 'bug wings' she designed and constructed, Ladybug was able to fly. Red Bee's favorite trained bee was named Michael and lived inside a pouch on Red Bee's belt. Unlike normal bees, Michael could sting multiple times and had great intelligence and a prolonged life span. Rosibel and Michael became close friends. After Rosibel disappeared and Red Bee was killed, Michael returned to Big Bee Ranch and was never seen again.
