Miss America

Miss America was a Golden Age hero and part of the superhero teams the Invaders and the All-Winners Squad.

Madeline Joyce was a wealthy teen heiress and the ward of her uncle, who was a powerful radio mogul. She met a scientist associate of her uncle who claimed to have invented a device that gave him superpowers when struck by lightning. Madeline played around with the device right as a thunderstorm rolled in and the device knocked her out.

The scientist saw her unconscious body and assumed that the device had killed her so he destroyed the device and committed suicide. She was not dead, though, and when she came to she had superpowers. She donned a patriotic costume and dubbed herself Miss America. She was active during World War II as a member of the All-Winners Squad, Liberty Legion, and the Invaders. She fought alongside other heroes such as Captain America for many years against the Nazis and supervillains, and even found love in the team when she met teammate Robert Frank, better known as the Whizzer, and fell in love.

Miss America had "the strength of a thousand men" and the power of flight.

She originally had x-ray vision as well, but this power faded over time and she ended up needing to wear glasses.
