Fictional Biography

LeTonya Charles was a young woman who had damaged her body with the drug Tar, but was granted a second chance when her aunt, Sarah Charles, one of the scientists who helped repair Cyborg, saved her with powerful cybernetic implants. Rather than use her newfound gifts for good, LeTonya chose to focus on personal gain as Cyborgirl.

She became a member of Villainy, Inc., teaming up with several seasoned Wonder Woman villains. She and her teammates tried to overthrow Skartaris, but were stopped by Wonder Woman.

When the government rounded up villains and sent them to the planet Salvation, she handed herself over to the Justice League to avoid being exiled.

Soon after, Cyborgirl joined the Cyborg Revenge Squad and was one of several such beings to wage an attack against Victor Stone at S.T.A.R. Labs. Stone avoided Cyborgirl's electromagnetic attack, but succeeded in defeating her through sheer force.

Powers and Abilities

Cybernetic Enhancement: Because of the implants her aunt gave her, Cyborgirl has the same powers as Cyborg. Much of her body has been replaced with advanced cybernetics. This grants her a variety of powers including: Superhuman Durability, Superhuman Speed, Superhuman Agility, Superhuman Reflexes, Superhuman Stamina, Superhuman Strength, Enhanced Senses and Energy Projection.

Augmenting herself cybernetically, Laura Washington stole a regulator from Van Horn Industries and implanted it in herself. Sometime after, Team Arrow tracked Washington down to a warehouse, hoping to take the regulator for their own means. Wild Dog took her on, but she shot blasts of energy at him, forcing him to dodge them. Before she could accurately hit him, Wild Dog was saved by The Flash. The Flash proceeded to beat up Laura, before allowing Kara Zor-El to hit her, sending Laura at him for a finishing blow.
