Story: Max Boldd was a rich kid who grew up getting thrown out of all the right schools along with his friend Lou Jacks [2]. For reasons unknown she turned to crime and became the crime czar known as Vendetta [3].
Vendetta had somehow obtained some of the technology left behind by the Others and had discovered how to use it for creating super-beings. She used the technology to create Vort-X and gathered a team of mercenaries named The Regulators [3].
Things didn't work out with The Regulators. After Vort-X' son was kidnapped the team left Vendetta to work for themselves [1]. Vendetta was last seen when she revealed that Hardedge had tried to have her killed [4], but she remained active and made a point out of spoiling the Regulator's jobs [1].
