Janet Van Dyne is the daughter of world-renowned scientist Vernon Van Dyne. When an alien brought to Earth during one of her father's experiments murdered the elder Van Dyne, Janet contacted his colleague, Henry Pym. She told Pym of her resolve to bring her father's killer to justice, and said she wanted to devote her life to combating criminals. Pym revealed his secret identity as Ant-Man, and Janet became his crime-fighting partner after undergoing conversion into a superhumanly powerful being.
