History

Being an international jewel thief, Commanda once crossed Spiderman when he was starting out in his super-hero career. She used her feminine wiles to defeat the young hero, who was still somewhat naïve. Using her mentally-controlled drones she was able to escape from their first confrontation. To make matters worse, Spider-Man did not get a clear photo of his adversary with the camera he had fixed to a wall: drones flying across the camera's field of view had hidden her face during the fight.

Later, in a hotel booked by the father of his friend Liz Allen , Spidey was able to defeat Commanda when she tried to rob the Scarlet Heart, a unique jewel that was on display in the hotel. After Spider-Man had nullified her drones, Mr. Allen and the security guards arrived, at which point Commanda reveled that not only was she a guest of the hotel but also that the jewel was hers. Framing Spider-Man for assault and attempted theft, Commanda was "rescued" by Mr. Allen and the guards, who shot at Spider-Man as he made his escape.

Some years later, Commanda resurfaced as the girlfriend of Blindside , a super-villainous bank robber.

Recently Commanda was seen at a gathering of criminals organized by the mob boss Hammerhead who was attempting to take advantage of the confusion caused by the super hero Civil War . The meeting was raided by Iron Man with S.H.I.E.L.D. forces and Commanda was presumably taken into custody.
