My name is Dead Girl. I died and then made myself not so dead. So I am the expert on that.

History
In her normal life Dead Girl was an aspiring actress. However, a fellow actor murdered her while she stayed with him in a hotel. Her mutant powers triggered and she avenged her death. Although the others considered her 'weird', Dead Girl agreed to join the team.[1] When X-Statix were killed on their final mission, Dead Girl fell apart due to some type of disease that decomposed her.[2]
When a deceased villain attempted to use other dead heroes and villains in a plot, Dead Girl and Doctor Strange worked to stop him. The Pitiful One, was intent on gathering other residents of Hell - such as Miss America, Kraven, Mysterio, The Ancient One, and Dead Girl's previous teammate The Anarchist - to bring himself to life once more, with only Doctor Strange and Dead Girl, with the aid of her dead friends, to stop them. In order to combat the Pitiful One's plans, Dead Girl and Strange enlisted help from dead heroes sent to Heaven, including Ant-Man II, the Phantom Rider, and someone known as the Piano-Player; they also called on Mister Sensitive and U-Go Girl, two of Dead Girl's former teammates.[3]
When Katie Sawyer, the daughter of U-Go Girl, began to manifest her powers, Dead Girl and Doop took her to the cemetery where her mom had been buried to give her few minutes with her mom. She didn't like it at first, but later understood. Dead Girl was in-between the land of the living and the dead. She helped with the reassembling of X-Statix, and her mission became taking down the X-Cellent.[4]Attributes
