Clash honed her hand-to-hand combat skills in an 'unauthorized army' before becoming Shadowforce Alpha's second-in-command alongside her lover Cordite. Infiltrating Col. Broga's room disguised as a nurse, Clash took out the guards alongside Cordite, although Cordite was wounded by government agent Cary Armstrong. After the Scarlet Spider arrived, Clash fled with the injured Cordite[1].
Clash took Cordite to an operating theater, where she forced young doctors Greg Chasen and Raymond Crow and student nurse Ellen Grantz to operate on him at gunpoint. When they slipped up, she prepared to gun them down, but before she could do so, the power went off and the Scarlet Spider knocked her gun away. When he was distracted by Shell, Flare, and Stampede, she grabbed the gun and took on the Spider. Using one of the doctors as a human shield against the Spider's stingers, she and a revived Cordite held him at gunpoint until the now-superhuman Armstrong burst in and took her out. Her escape route blocked by webbing, she and Cordite whipped out grenades, planning to go out in a blaze of glory, but Armstrong intercepted and neutralized them[2].
