Fictional character biography

A member of the Sisters of Sin, Slash was a young disciple of the Red Skull. Her physical age was accelerated into an old woman, calling herself Sister Agony because of the razor-sharp talons she had in place of her hands. She and her Sisters attacked Captain America but were defeated. She was eventually restored to her natural age. However, soon after, she returned alongside the Sisters of Sin, this time as a young adult. She and her sisters were once again defeated by Captain America.

She was later seen at a bar with the Answer, playing strip games with her sisters.^[1]

Powers and abilities

Slash wields razor-sharp metal claws and is well-trained in battle. However, because her mental age is that of a child, she is often easily defeated.
