Windfall (real name Wendy Jones) is a meta-human and a member of the Outsiders.

Physical appearance[]

Wendy is a slender teenager with blue eyes and curly blonde hair that extends to her upper back. She wears a white long-sleeved shirt under a blue one, short jeans. She also wears a purple hat, with a curl of blond hair on her forehead escaping from underneath. After her incident with losing control of her powers, she took to wearing an inhibitor collar around her neck. As of February 2019, Wendy no longer wears the inhibitor collar.

History[]

2018[]

At some point prior to November 2018, Wendy was identified as having the Meta-Gene by the Goode Goggles, and was sent to a meta-human auctioning depot in Bialya to be sold on the black market.[3]

Nightwing's team shut the depot down, rescuing Wendy and the other captive metas, who were then sent to the Meta-Human Youth Center in Taos.[3]

Wendy stood at the back of a room in the Meta-Human Youth Center, watching Eduardo Dorado Sr. explain how the Center worked. When she turned to leave with a scowl, she was stopped by Eduardo Dorado Jr. who convinced her to stay before he teleported on stage. She then took a seat and, with a smile, watched Ed and his father finish the speech.[2]

In the center, Wendy and three other female meta-teens debated the purposes of the inhibitor collars. Wendy told the others that collars were for pets, and that she would never put one on.[2]

Wendy was put in a group with Mist, and Livewire and to work on controlling their powers, supervised by Eduardo Jr. and his father. When Wendy heard her companions give themselves "hero names", she decided to call herself "Windfall". After that, she activated her powers, but accidentally drew Mist (in her mist form) into her small tornado, causing Livewire to zap her to save Mist. Angered at being called a brat by Livewire, Wendy lost control of her powers and accidentally sucked all the air from the room, so Ed teleported her out of the center. Outside, Wendy broke down into tears, calling herself a monster while Ed comforted her.[2]

Back in the meeting room, Wendy sat in a chair glumly, wearing the collar she previously refused to wear, while Ed looked at her sadly.[2]

At the Taos Harvest Festival, Wendy glumly stood on her own in a corner. Perdita cheered her up, and the two girls laughed and chatted together.[4]

Later, Wendy, along with the other meta-human teens, were rendered unconscious and nearly taken away by members of Onslaught. Wendy was rescued by Ed.[4]

When the Outsiders arrived with more meta-teens, she overheard Ed state his desire to join the team. She congratulated him on his new endeavor and showed the recent news reports on the popularity of the Outsiders.[6]

Wendy was finally confident enough to remove her inhibitor collar. Kid Flash, Beast Boy, and El Dorado supported her decision.[7]

At some point in 2019,[8] she joined the Outsiders,[9] and moved into the Premiere Building.[10]

2020[]

On February 24,[11] Windfall went on a mission with the Outsiders against the Cult of the Kobra. Windfall made sure Stargirl wasn't caught from behind by some cultists, and the squad was successful in capturing Kobra and preventing the terrorists from sending a signal to brainwash people into joining the cult.[12]
