         In 1933, just eight days after their honeymoon, Michael and Valerie Stanton are flying back to Rain City, where he works as Assistant D.A. He was anxious to get back to work on his investigation of mobster, Thomas Creel. But the plane explodes in flight, and of the 13 people aboard, only Valerie Stanton survives; given her life back by a mysterious woman named Megaera.

         Megaera not only gave her new life, but new strength and speed, and she decides to go after the mobster, Thomas Creek and bring true justice to the killer of those 12 victims of the plane crash. Using the alias of Jane Smith at first, at the end of the first story, she takes the identity of Madame 13, joining the ranks of the super heroes.

(* Like most of the heroes during the 1930s and ‘40s, Valerie Stanton died in 1945 after a fierce gun battle with spies and Japanese who had infiltrated America.  Now in this modern day, a new woman rises to take the name. Emma Stephens is grabbed by muggers planning on raping her, and drag her into the cemetery, unaware that the original Madame 13 is buried in one the crypts. When Emma breaks lose and tries to escape she accidentally crashes into the crypt, smearing blood across Valerie’s name. As the muggers catch up to Emma once more, she sees the vision of Valerie and another woman – perhaps Megaera – and they tell her to live and fight, and she finds new strength and skills within her.)
