Jane Vasko's face was scarred in an accident which ironically endowed her with healing powers. She became the gun-toting sociopath vigilante named 'Painkiller Jane.'
'Painkiller Jane's' Overview: How The Story Began
Painkiller Jane's Origins
We are introduced to Jane Vasco while she is acting as an undercover police officer attempting to infiltrate the 'Fonti Mob.' After managing to successfully infiltrate the organization, she establishes a trusting relationship with the mob's ring leader, Joe Fonti. Fonti unsuspectingly plants a bomb on Vasco, and sends her on a mission to confront and relay a message to a rival gang leader, Adam. The bomb which was meant to detonate and kill Adam, backfires allowing him to escape to safety and gravely injuring Jane Vasco. In turn, Adam revives Jane, and Jane is mysteriously endowed with healing powers. After obtaining these special powers, Jane ends her career as a special under cover police officer, and takes on the role of a vigilante.
Painkiller Jane's Special Powers
Due to the accident that harmed her, we get the idea that whatever Adam did to revive her has made Jane indestructible . Jane manages to heal within moments after receiving gun shot wounds, (even directly to her face) and regenerate. However, even though the wounds heal, Jane still experiences excruciating pain which is where her name is derived.
