HISTORY

Lashawn Baez was an unconfident grad student at Central City Medical School, who left her studies when her father got ill. Lashawn was to donate a kidney to him, but the operation triggered her meta-gene and made her explode when being touched. Now unable to donate any organ, she refined her meta-human abilities so that she could teleport by splitting her self down to molecules and then re-build her body elsewhere. As Peek-a-Boo, she snuck into Central City Hospital to steal a kidney. Accidentally destroying a lab, she was forced to fight the Flash (Wally West) and Cyborg who defeated Lashawn and sent her to Iron Heights.

During Gorilla Grodd's attack on the prison, Peek-a-Boo escaped and visited her father who had been given a new kidney. However, his body rejected it and Lashawn watched him die. When Flash appeared, Lashawn furiously revealed that she had originally intended to become a hero, but after being branded a Rogue by Flash, she rejected him and all he stood for. Nevertheless, Lashawn saved the life of Linda Park when she was injured in the battle. Peek-a-Boo then turned herself in to the police, and remains in their custody.
