Character History
With The Minutemen
Very little is known about Zandt's past. In the early months of 1939, she made her debut by exposing a man who disitributed child pornography. She joined The Minutemen under the alias The Silhouette in 1939 and was present at the first Minutemen Christmas party later that year. She was also present at the Minutemen headquarters in 1940 when a group photo was taken and where she made a remark towards Sally Juspeczyk about the Polish, which caused Sally to change her surname.
It was later revealed by the newspapers in 1946 that Zandt was sharing a residence with another woman in a lesbian relationship. After persuasion by Laurence Schexnayder, The Minutemen decided to exclude her from the group.
Death
Zandt was murdered six weeks after her expulsion by the Liquidator, one of her old enemies. She was killed along with her lover.
Notes
- She was a smoker.
