Daffy

Golden Age Origin


Daffy was a female professional wrestler. She had been a champion hog caller from the small town of Kookasow, Iowa, when she was discovered by wrestling manager Deke Parsons. She fell in love with Deke, though he did not feel the same. The tow of them traveled around looking for matches and Daffy fought a number of criminals and unusual evil-doers outside the ring, including Atmos Fear, a time displaced Jack the Ripper and Terrible Desdemona. She usually fought male wrestlers in the ring, although a few female fighters stepped up. At one point, she opened a gym to train other women.

Daffy possessed superhuman strength, sufficient to rip apart the bars of a jail cell, or smash through a wall. She was well meaning, but was sometimes too trusting. She was not particularly well educated, but was an expert fighter and a champion wrestler. She could easily take on more than one man at a time.
