History

Jesse Chambers inherited powers from both of her parents: Liberty Belle, a super-strong heroine of World War II, and the late Johnny Chambers, a.k.a. Johnny Quick. Johnny, a super-speedster who drew energy from the Speed Force by mentally envisioning a specific geometrical construct nearly unimaginable in three-dimensional space, taught teenage Jesse his formula, hoping she would follow in his footsteps.

Instead, she devoted her life to academia, studying super-heroes of the past and present and her college dissertation was devoted primarily to the original members of the Justice Society of America. As a result, Jesse was a semi-reclusive student before eventually being tempted into action as Jesse Quick. During this time, Jesse met fellow speedster Wally West, the Flash, and the two quickly developed a close bond.

However, their bond became severely tested when Wally temporarily passed over the mantle of the Flash to Jesse in a manipulative attempt to show Impulse the responsibility of a being a hero. Despite Wally’s good intentions, this act caused Jesse to become bitter towards him, and the two have only recently begun mending their friendship. Later, while battling the evil speedster known as Savitar alongside Earth’s other speedsters, Jesse’s heroic resolve intensified when her father became one with the Speed Force, giving his life to save her from an attack by Lady Savitar.

Following her father’s funeral, Jesse turned to running his corporation, Quickstart, in the hopes of preserving it for the future. Jesse’s relationship with her mother has become strained due to the fact that her mother blames heroism for Johnny Quick’s death. In recent months, Jesse was granted the opportunity to say goodbye to her father when Johnny Quick’s spirit manifested inside the Speed Force.

When the original Titans decided to get back together again, they each brought one new member with them. As a means to help finally bury the hatchet with Jesse, and help her become a hero in her own right (like she hasn’t already), Wally picks Jesse as his addition to the team.

Almost immediately following the team’s reformation, the group is attacked by the newly reformed H.I.V.E., and though aided by Superman, it’s Jesse’s detective skills, quick thinking and leadership which ultimately organizes and wins the day.
