History

Not much has been revealed regarding the early life of the mutant known only as La Bandera. The young woman was born into the South American country of Tierra Verde, which at some point was ruled by the harsh dictator, President Felix Guillermo Caridad. La Bandera created her heroic identity and began a revolt with a band of citizens.

President Caridad hired former Nazi scientist known as Geist to prepare a superhero team that would be loyal to his totalitarian government. The hero Wolverine followed, having been tracking Geist for his previous war crimes. Wolverine joined La Bandera's revolt, and the heroes led a successful revolt and ousted Geist and Caridad.

Later, La Bandera was killed by Zeitgeist.
