History

Sally Floyd used to be the writer for a newspaper column called the Mutant Diaries. Her daughter was born a mutant and after a few months of life, started de-aging, until she was back to a fetus stage and died. With the death of her daughter and being abandoned by her husband, Sally began to rely on alcohol to ease her pain. Now after M-Day she is writing the Ex Mutant Diaries. She has also been ordered to attend Alcoholics Anonymous to stop her alcohol problems.

As a result of her writings, a killer began sending her pictures of ex-mutants he'd killed and calling her mysteriously, telling her that "not enough mutants" had died. While she briefly considered giving up her column, she was convinced by detectives to continue, in the hope that it would draw him out. Eventually at a meeting with a seemingly depowered Angel (Warren Worthington III), the killer (Ghoul) appeared and attacked her. Angel being depowered was revealed as a mental illusion by Emma Frost and several X-Men also revealed their presence, attacking and eventually defeating the Ghoul (seemingly killing him in the process).

Following the battle, Sally told the story of her daughter in the Ex-Mutant Diaries and willingly entered Alcoholics Anonymous.

During the Civil War she worked with fellow reporter Ben Urich to cover the various angles of the conflict. During the conflict, she earned an exclusive interview with Captain America at one his safehouses. Eventually, with the aid of Ms. Marvel, she and Ben Urich discovered that Tony Stark had orchestrated many of the events of the war, including Norman Osborn's attempted assassination of an Atlantean diplomat.

During the conflict she was introduced to Danny Granville, a New York police detective in the super-human division, who she's currently dating.

Toward the end of the Civil War, she quit the Alternative and joined with Ben Urich to create a truly independent newspaper. When the newspaper almost failed, a mysterious benefactor bought out the Alternative and handed it over to Ben Urich, who renamed it Front Line and became its Editor-In-Chief. Sally Floyd became the lead reporter.

When Hulk returned to earth, she was one of the few who stayed in Manhattan in order to cover the event.

She's also begun drinking again, occasionally.
