HISTORY
Young street thief Amanda Lopez was struck by a truck while committing a robbery. She was kidnapped from the hospital by agents of Steve Dayton, a.k.a. Mento. Lopez and other wounded people were infused with Promethium, a self-generating energy source, and gained superpowers as a result, Amanda started calling herself Touch-N-Go, who could temporarily steal the kinetic energy of anyone she touched. Touch-N-Go and her new "friends" started a half-heroic, half-villainous career as the Hybrid, battling the Titans on a couple of occasions.
Touch-N-Go and other female Hybrid members were drafted into Circe's army of female super-villains. Shortly thereafter, she was kidnapped by the villainous Roulette and forced to participate in public battles in "the House", a gambling club for super-villains. It seems Touch-N-Go lost her life in one such battle.
