Her name was Janie Jackson. Her father was a police lieutenant, Charles Jackson. Unbeknownst to his eleven year old daughter, Charles Jackson was on the take of the Red Hawk and his gang. An adventurous young girl, Janie liked to show up her brother Bill, but because she had to remain demure and proper publicly, she would often perform her adventures on the sly.
One night, she followed her father into a nightclub. She thought she would watch a raid by the River City police on the criminal enterprise. Instead she stumble into the middle of a meeting between her father and the Red Hawk. The Red Hawk had some kind of power over her father, that much was clear. Janie wasn’t happy with that realization, but she was even less happy with the next. The Red Hawk ordered Charles Jackson to hunt down a woman named Gail Porter and kill her.
Janie knew she could not just stand aside and let her father become a murderer. So she set out to do the only thing her young mind allowed her to do: she would become a costumed vigilante. Sewing a makeshift costume, she used her acrobatic abilities to become the heroic Tomboy. Years of trailing her father gave her detective skills she hadn’t even known she had. She used them to start tracking Gail Porter herself… and that path took her straight to the Crime Crusader.
