Fictional team history
The Femme Fatales are a group of mutants who work as mercenaries for hire. Group members Bloodlust and Whiplash have a history of working together prior to joining the Femme Fatales, as members of a previous group called the Band of Baddies. [1] They were hired by fellow villain Chameleon in the disguise of Dr. Turner to threaten an ambassador. Spider-Man intervenes and saves the ambassador, making him an enemy of the Femme Fatales. [2]
The Femme Fatales later receive an invitation to join Superia and her organization of female criminals, the Femizons. They accept and battle Captain America and Paladin in the process. [3]
The Femme Fatales splinter and disband sometime later. Bloodlust and Whiplash are seen attending the A.I.M. Weapons Expo. [4]
Bloodlust loses her powers after the events of "Decimation". Mindblast retains her powers and briefly allies with Hammerhead during the "Civil War" storyline. [5]
During the "Hunt for Wolverine" storyline, the Femme Fatales are joined by Viper and Sapphire Styx, with Whiplash changing her name to Snake Whip. The Fatales ambush Kitty Pryde, Rogue, Domino, Jubilee, and Psylocke in Madripoor. [6] Sapphire Styx uses her lifeforce-draining ability on Psylocke, but this backfires and Styx is destroyed, enabling Psylocke to create a new body for herself. Viper escapes, while the other Femme Fatales are locked up. [7]
