Green dreams they fill my mind (Part 20)...

Green Super Hero History Month

Moondragon


Marvel Comics' Moondragon first appeared in Daredevil #105 in November 1973.  Heather Douglas and her parents were in a car and witnessed the arrival of Thanos' spaceship on earth.  Thanos wanted no witnesses so he blew up the car, killing her parents and throwing her aside.  She was found by Thanos' father, Mentor, who took her to their homeworld, Titan, and had her raised by the monks there.

Under the monks' training, her body reached its peak physical condition, becoming a great marital artist in the process.  The monks also helped her access her psionic potential.

Upon her return to earth, she joined the Avengers and Defenders for a short time.  She returned to outer space working with many heroes there against Thanos.  She keeps her head shaved, as the monks do, and has always worn a uniform, primarily green in color.

IN addition having great marital arts skills, and being at peak physical potential, Moondragon is an extremely powerful telepath and a low level teleknetic.
