Phantom Lady is a fictional superhero which was originally published by Quality Comics. It wasn't until 1989 that the second Phantom Lady was acquired by DC comics. Stormy Knight, is most current incarnation of the character. Edit


HISTORY
Phantom Lady is a female wartime superhero that first appeared in the 1940’s. Back then Phantom Lady was published by Fox Feature Syndicate and the character was controversial due to the time period, her busty appearance, and the small amount of clothing she wore as a heroine. She is a prime example of what is known as “good girl art", a type of art that fell under criticism because of the possible effect this could have on children. This type of art would portray the female superhero in provocative situations and “pin up” poses.


Phantom Lady’s first appearance as a comic book character also included Plastic Man and the Human Bomb. In this issue her alter ego was revealed to be Sandra Knight, beautiful daughter of the United States Senator Henry Knight, and was truly a devoted daughter. One night Sandra discovered a plot to kill her father by two assassins that were trying to assassinate the Senator to cause political strife. Sandra was able to stop the assassin's plot. She did not have a weapon to use against them so she rolled up a newspaper and used that as a weapon. As a result of this she developed a liking for crime fighting and any kind of exciting activity. If she was going to become a crime fighter she would need more of a weapon than a rolled up newspaper so she took a “black light ray projector” that a friend had given her father and developed it into a weapon. She could turn it on herself and it would make her invisible or could blind opponents by shining it at them.

Sandra then took on the identity of Phantom Lady, mistress of the dark.  In the beginning her costume was basically a yellow swimsuit with a green cape. However later when DC Comics began to publish the comic she took on a much more provocative look in which the costume was much skimpier and Phantom Lady used this to distract her male opponents.


All together there have been three women who have taken the title of Phantom Lady, the most current one joining the mysterious figure known as Uncle Sam and his Freedom Fighters team.
