Who is Dee-Rail?

Before her career as an aspiring superheroine, Dee was a runaway who rode the rails to get away from her troubles back home. However, she somehow wound up in the middle of a battle between villainous forces and the superpowered policeman, Savage Dragon. After saving her from being killed in the crossfire, Dee finally got the never to stand up for herself, and stop running, something that oddly enough, triggered her superhuman powers. Using these new abilities, Dee helped the Dragon to defeat his foe, then disappeared seemingly without a trace. However, Dee would later reappear here and there across the United States, inspired by the Dragon to use her powers for the good of mankind as the superheroine, Dee-Rail, the human locomotive! Recently, like a number of heroes from the "Imageverse," Dee has been taking an interest in the increasingly hostile activities of the Bomb Queen, both inside and outside the confines of New Port City, the Queen's domain and a haven for all sorts of vice and villainy. Whilst other heroines have the ability to stop the Queen's activities all across the nation, Dee has used her so-called "weakness" to her advantage to stop shipments of illegal contraband .
