Along with Blue Streak, the Vamp was a double agent working for the Corporation infiltrating the
S.H.I.E.L.D. Super-Agent program. [Captain America #217-218, 228-231] She battledCaptain America and lost. [Captain America #222-223]The Vamp attended the villain meeting at the "Bar With No Name" called by Firebrand. With her absorbo-belt confiscated by S.H.I.E.L.D., and lacking the device which allowed her to transform into the Aninmus, Vamp was easily killed by the
Scourge of the Underworld along with the rest of the villains present. [Captain America #319]Animus
The Vamp had an additional alter-ego: The Animus, a huge-headed pink-skinned primitive with great powers. As the Animus, she could fire mental bolts, use telekinesis, and animate objects.
Animus embodies both ends of the evolutionary scale, the savagery of early man, coupled with the massive mental capacity of future man.
Powers and Equipment
The Vamp had telepathy. A device held by the criminal Corporation controlled her transformation from Vamp to Animus.
She wore the absorbo-belt, a
S.H.I.E.L.D. device which allowed her to duplicate the physical non-superhuman abilities of other individuals.External links
