Origin[]

Sally worked for a private detective agency under a man known only as "The Chief." She often went undercover for the agency or served as bait. Sally was brave and was a good shot with her revolver. She also carried special weapons, such as a single shot gun disguised as a lipstick container for close-quarters defense. She could take down a well-muscled man with her judo techniques and she had a mean uppercut. Sally had blue eyes and was considered very attractive.
