Origin
One of the best marksman in her class, Misty Knight graduated from the New York City Police Academy with top honors.

Losing her right arm in a terrorist attack upon a bank, Knight was equipped with a bionic replacement by Stark International, the corporate designer of the Iron Man armor.

Retiring from police work, Knight formed a partnership with the samurai Colleen Wing, forming a private investigation firm - Nightwing Restorations Ltd.  The two private investigators often formed a partnership with the Heroes of Hire, Power Man and Iron Fist.  Reputed for their martial arts skills they were dubbed the Daughters of the Dragon.
