Concept and creation
Bloody Mary was created by Karl Kesel and debuted in the Hawk and Dove issue "Girls Night Out". She made subsequent appearances in the Adventures of Superman and Wonder Girl titles.

Fictional character biography
A member of the junior Female Furies, Bloody Mary is an energy vampire that enjoys sucking the life out of her victims. She also flies using a disk and can project energy out of her eyes that can hypnotically manipulate her enemies. She hates being touched, and will attack anyone who dares to do so. She has only worked with the Furies on a few occasions.
When a mysterious figure began murdering various New Gods, Bloody Mary joined her warrior sisters in an unsuccessful attempt to have Wonder Girl join their ranks for further protection. Bloody Mary was killed in the "Clash of the Titans" issue of Wonder Girl in 2008 during a fight alongside other members of the Female Furies. She was killed by Infinity-Man, but returned much later leading a vampire-worshipping cult on Earth.
