Biography
Black Arrow and Blitzkrieg were led by Overgirl to attack the Freedom Fighters. This resulted in the deaths of The Ray and Dollman.
Later, Black Arrow reported to Overgirl that Vibe, Phantom Lady, and Black Condor were still missing. Blitzkrieg then informed her that Vibe and The Ray were last seen breaching away with Red Tornado's neuro-cortex, causing her to send them out to find them.
After attacking a rebel outpost and subduing Vibe, Black Arrow, Overgirl, and Blitzkrieg discovered where the cortex was. Through the computer in the base, they also learned of other Earths and of the new The Ray.
Black Arrow joined Blitzkrieg and Overgirl one last time for a confrontation with the Freedom Fighters' army. Black Arrow took on Black Condor during the battle and was eventually defeated. The Freedom Fighters cuffed and captured him, along with Blitzkrieg, having defeated the Reichsmen.
