Powers/Abilities:
Jubula Pride had her genome altered as a young woman to
allow her bones to fly, much like her father, the Owl. The Owl
originally used
a flight serum, along with technology, to allow him to fly and it
caused
long-term damage. It is unrevealed if Jubula used the same serum.
Using
technology to form a battle suit, Jubula was capable of flying (how
much due to
her own power and how much due to the tech was unrevealed) and the suit
was equipped with claws that extend and
spinning razor blades.
Jubula seemed to have some training in combat and
technology development.

History: (Daredevil
IV#15 (fb)) – Jubula Pride grew up with her
father, the Owl, after her mom left. The Owl doted on her and made her
feel
special, though she was aware of his criminal dealings. Wanting to
share
everything with Jubula, Owl hired scientists from A.I.M. to equip her
with
advanced Stark technology then he had geneticists alter her so she
could fly
the way he could. She developed a costume and went flying with her dad
often.
(Daredevil IV#15 (fb)) – Jubula sold some of her
flying
technology to local criminals.
(Daredevil IV#1 – BTS) – Those criminals later
used Jubula's tech
to kidnap Chelsea Hastert, daughter of deputy mayor Charlie Hastert.
Daredevil
stopped them.
(Daredevil IV#14 (fb) – BTS) – Jubula got word
that the Owl
had been kidnapped by a supervillain in San Francisco so she went
looking for
him.
(Daredevil IV#14) – Jubula badly beat a man on a
roof,
demanding intel on the Owl, then she threw the man off the roof when he
proved
unhelpful. Daredevil saved the man then he watched Jubula fight off a
bunch of
criminals and he was impressed with her skills. After stopping Jubula
from
killing the men, he heard her story and agreed to help her find the
Owl. They
followed clues and battled criminals across the city then they found
the Owl
hooked up to wires on Alcatraz Island. The vigilante Shroud arrived,
revealing himself and
explaining that they couldn't disconnect the Owl or he could die.
Jubula, realizing
Shroud was lying, leapt to attack him.
(Daredevil IV#15) – Jubula lashed out at the
Shroud then
turned to try and free her father but Daredevil ensnared her in his
billy club
and pulled her out of the room and back into the boat, saying they
weren't
ready for this fight yet. Leaving Jubula tied up, Daredevil asked her
to share
her origin story and she did. Shroud began speaking to Jubula and
Daredevil
through computer and tech screens, revealing he was using the Owl as a
conduit
to monitor and access every Internet interface through northern
California, all
in an attempt to find his ex-girlfriend, Julia Carpenter. To keep
Daredevil
busy, Shroud publicly revealed that "Foggy" Nelson was alive then he
posted
private details in the life of Daredevil's girlfriend Kirsten McDuffie.
Matt
and Jubula went to the home of Charlie Hastert to ask for help but
Charlie had
just seen leaked footage of Jubula selling her tech and she called the
police
to escort Matt and Jubula away. Daredevil furiously lashed out at
Jubula, now thinking her a criminal, but she reminded him that they
needed each other. She
agreed to go follow the Shroud while Matt looked for Julia Carpenter.
Jubula
also suspected she could find a way to stop the Shroud from making more
broadcasts. Jubula flew away as the police closed in.
(Daredevil IV#16 (fb) – BTS) – Jubula found Shroud
with Owl
and agreed to help him get results on Julia as soon as possible.
(Daredevil IV#16) – Hating to see her father
suffer, Jubula
kept searching the intel for the whereabouts of Julia Carpenter. They
discovered that Julia was on a flight to San Francisco scheduled to
arrive
soon. Shroud rushed to the airport to get her but Jubula followed and
she
grabbed Julia while Shroud was battling Daredevil, offering to trade
her for
the Owl.
(Daredevil IV#17) – Julia escaped Jubula's grasp,
hit her
with her elbow, then knocked Jubula down the stairs. Shroud lashed out
at
everyone around him but the Kingpin's men managed to get away with
Julia.
(Daredevil IV#18) – Jubula returned to the Owl,
still trying
to free him from the equipment, and Shroud returned, angry with her for
her
betrayal. Shroud convinced her to lie to the Owl about the Kingpin
being behind
his pain and promised that if she did so, he would set Owl free. Once
Owl was
free, Jubula got him to safety.
