HistoryEdit

Tandy Bowen's first appeared giving an interview to a news reporter following Flash Thompson's kidnapping by the Wild Pack. Tandy was identified as Midtown High School's Student Council President, and stated that "everyone knows" that Spider-Man went to the school.^[1] She apparently hates mutants, calling an anti-mutant task force to arrest Kitty Pryde.^[2]

She met the student council president of Forest Hills High School Tyrone Johnson during the national student council Hamptons' weekend, although they wouldn't start a friendship until they reencountered in Westwood Mall's Food Court when Tyrone was working as the assistant manager of Burger Frog.

When they were attending the prom night, a speeding delivery truck struck their rented limo, and they remained in coma. They were put in the same hospital room, where the Roxxon Brain Trust saw the opportunity to use them as guinea pigs in their experiments to create super-soldiers. Roxxon performed experiments with dark matter on them, giving them unique superpowers. They apparently escaped Roxxon and started a crime-fighting career, being one of their first adversaries Boomshell.^[3]

Powers and AbilitiesEdit

Powers

Seemingly those of Tandy Bowen of Earth-616.

NotesEdit

Before her first appearance, Tandy Bowen's name appeared several times in issues of Ultimate Spider-Man, e.g. on graffiti saying "Tandy Bowen for President". In Ultimate Spider-Man #78, her name appears on a stall in the girls' restroom at Midtown High School, saying "Tandy Bowen bites!" A separate piece of graffiti underneath this suggests that she only bites Flash Thompson.
