BETTY
Real Name: Betty "Chance" Halford History: Not much is known about Betty Norris until she meets George Chance, The Ghost. She would accompany The Ghost on his many cases investigating the supernatural during and after WWII. Chance would eventually propose to Betty and make her his wife. In 1969 an alien menace invaded Earth. Attempting to stop the alien, some members of S.M.A.S.H. were killed while others were imprisoned in suspended animation. Betty, ever beside her husband, was a possible witness to the death of The Ghost and his reemergence as a spirit. She was also imprisoned for the thirty years it took Tom Strange and his counterpart, Tom Strong, to free the imprisoned science heroes. As the alien menace was defeated Betty, like the other heroes, found herself dealing with aftermath. A new crisis arose three years after the defeat of the alien menace. Betty was working as a stage performer in Las Vegas when her husband, now The Green Ghost, sent Grant Halford to lead her to safety. Betty played a vital role in the Crisis until the danger was to great for her to go on. She would remain behind with Halford while the other science heroes uncovered the one-time hero Mystico as the threat. Betty and Halford fell in love during that time and would marry after Mystico was defeated. The happy couple’s current whereabouts are unknown at this time. Powers: Betty is a basic conjuror of magic and possesses telepathic abilities. She is also highly skilled with throwing knifes. |
