Publication history
Scandal first appeared as a shrewd businesswoman in Villains United #1 (July 2005). Within this run, her character was developed and revealed by the author to be as deadly a character as any of the others in Secret Six, where she unveiled her trademark "lamentation blades" and battle outfit. In Villains United #6, the character was revealed to be lesbian.
Scandal Savage also makes guest appearances in Birds of Prey following the "Whitewater" story arc.
Fictional character biography
Scandal Savage is the daughter of Vandal Savage and an unknown Brazilian woman, being raised in the latter's country and trained in combat from an early age. As an adult, Scandal joins the Secret Six and battles the Secret Society of Super Villains on Lex Luthor's orders. Scandal also enters a relationship with Knockout, who Pistolera nearly kills with a Thanagarian rifle.
Following this, the Secret Six are hired to protect Ice. During the battle, Deadshot accidentally shoots Scandal in the back. She survives, but is too weak to continue the fight.
After an unknown assailant kills Knockout, Amanda Waller sends Bronze Tiger and Rick Flag to kidnap Scandal. King Faraday offers her a place in a revived Suicide Squad, but she refuses and promises to kill him. Faraday then orders her to be shipped off to an unknown location.
In Secret Six (vol. 3), Scandal enters a relationship with stripper Liana Kerzner. After Knockout is resurrected, she, Scandal, and Liana plan to enter a polygamous marriage.
In Gotham War, Scandal begins working for Catwoman. Vandal Savage betrays and nearly kills Scandal before Catwoman and Batman rescue her.
In DC All In, Scandal Savage becomes the leader of the Injustice Society.
Powers and abilities
The full extent of Scandal's powers has yet to be revealed, although it would appear that, owing to her father's immortality, she is incredibly resilient to harm. She claims to be "damned hard to kill" at the least. In Birds of Prey #107, she took a bullet from Deadshot and was capable of regrowing her damaged organs, talking to and carrying Knockout several minutes later with no apparent ill effects. In Checkmate (vol. 2) #18, it is speculated that she may be immortal like her father. She also took several rounds from a machine gun to the chest and legs and still considered herself combat ready (threatening to kill her assailants). She and other people have made comments that imply that her life had been or will be longer than average. She has proven herself to be a vicious fighter, capable of holding her own against the likes of Fatality, Hawkgirl, and Talia al Ghul.
In combat, she often employs retractable, wrist-mounted blades known as the Laminas Pesar or "Lamentation Blades".
