Faith (New Earth)

History
Faith was a female hero with tremendous psychic powers. She was often nicknamed by her teammates “the Fat Lady”, a reference to the line, “its not over until the fat lady sings’. When Faith was required in the combat zone, it truly was over.
Faith was a substitution by Batman for the Justice League when the main members were transported thousands of years into the past. Of the numerous heroes to serve on the Justice League, Batman chose her along with Green Arrow, Firestorm, Hawkgirl, Jason Blood, Major Disaster, and the Atom to replace the original members in a short tenure with Nightwing as the new leader.
The new Justice League confronted Gamemnae and eventually defeated her with the help of the original Justice League. Faith remained with the Justice League until she was bitten by vampires.
Her origin was still unclear. She revealed to Major Disaster that she was raised by the military and has worked with the Black-Ops group. The U.S. military continued to try to capture her and use her as a weapon.
She also served in the short reincarnation of Doom Patrol.
