Miss America II


    Madeline Joyce is visiting an old lighthouse that has been converted into a laboratory for secret experiments in electricity. Madeline gets accidentally jolted with thousands of volts of electricity when the equipment overloads due to a freak thunderstorm, but she miraculously survives! When she awakens, a week later, she finds herself possessed with amazing powers. Madeline Joyce can now fly and has great strength, x-ray vision, and a vast intellect! Realizing these gifts should be used for the benefit of mankind, Madeline puts her newfound abilities to good use as Miss America, champion of the people. Making herself a patriotic costume, Miss America begins her war on all the evil perpetrators who would harm America's citizens and the war effort that the country is engaged in. After the war is over, Miss America and other heroes band together to form the All Winners Squad, a force for good in an uncertain world. However, the group is short-lived, and Miss America's career comes to an end a few years afterwards.
