Gypsy is a DC Comics superheroine. She first appeared in Justice League Annual #2 (November 1984).
Character History
Real name Cindy Reynolds, Gypsy was first introduced during the "Justice League Detroit" era in the 1980s, which also included such characters as Vibe, Vixen, Martian Manhunter, and Elongated Man. She was created to cash in on the look of pop star Cyndi Lauper, which was popular at the time.
She was also a charter member of The Justice League Task Force and the short-lived Conglomerate. Gypsy will become an official member of the Birds of Prey during the One Year Later event.
Powers and abilities
She has chameleon abilities, which enable her to blend into her background. Her abilities are telepathic in nature, and can affect only living beings. She can camouflage both herself and someone standing within close proximity to herself. Her ability is rapid changing instead of static.
Gypsy also has the ability to project frightening illusions into the minds of other people. These illusions usually show what the affected person fears most. This ability can affect other living things besides people, and Gypsy can use this ability in combat situations. Gypsy is a moderate hand-to-hand combatant. Gypsy also has an aptitude in electronics, and she became a daughter figure to veteran Leaguer J'onn J'onzz, the Martian Manhunter.
Other media
Gypsy has made many background appearances in Justice League Unlimited alongside her Detroit League teammates Vibe and Steel II. Of note is that on the one occasion she was shown using powers in the series, she demonstrated an ability to move through solid matter, as opposed to her usual powers.
