Cyclone

Cyclone (Maxine Hunkel) is a superheroine appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. She is the granddaughter of the original Red Tornado, the niece of the Cyclone Kids, and a member of the Justice Society of America. The character made her live-action debut in the DC Extended Universe film Black Adam (2022), played by Quintessa Swindell. Publication history Although not named as such at the time, the character who would eventually become known as Maxine Hunkel first appeared (as a new Red Tornado) in Kingdom Come #2 (June 1996) by writer Mark Waid and artist Alex Ross. A decade later, prior to the relaunch of the Justice Society of America series, writer Geoff Johns created Maxine Hunkel, a hero who would follow the legacy of the Red Tornado. Remembering the character he designed for Kingdom Come, cover artist Alex Ross based his design for Maxine on the earlier character, retroactively making them one and the same.
