She later found him in his lab conducting his experiments where his efforts with animal testing had reached a dead end as the smartskin only stopped to a certain point. He then contemplated human testing with Alix offering her own thoughts to help with his experiment. Afterwards, he looked towards introducing smartskin to the world with Alix thinking military applications. However, her husband thought that they could use it to become superheroes. He looked to style them after the World War II heroes known as Bulletman and Bulletgirl with him even updating the name to Bulleteer.

Powers and abilities
Alix Harrower was an ordinary human being with all the natural traits of the species. (Seven Soldiers: The Bulleteer v1 #1)
She gained powers by accident as the result of her husbands experiments in a new technology he called smartskin. The smartskin growth pattern only spread effectively when it bonded to collagen where it copied tissue growth. After working on humans, it turned the skin into something that was stronger than steel. Thus, those exposed to it were shown to gain superhuman strength as a result. Conventional means were shown to be unable to pierce the metallic coating that was deemed indestructible. In Alix's case, her powers were gained when she tried to help her husband who had willingly applied the smartskin to himself. He would touch her after having difficulty to breath causing Alix's skin to be coated in the material as it expanded over her body. (Seven Soldiers: The Bulleteer v1 #1)
