Biography

Origin

Stompa was a female member of the New Gods of Apokolips where she came to be a member of their elite Female Furies under Granny Goodness. (Mister Miracle v1 #6)

To learn more about the Anti-Life Equation, Darkseid sent Stompa along with the Female Furies and Parademons to raid Mars. They killed a number of Green Martian manhunters before being driven back to Apokolips. In their attack, they succeeded in kidnapping M’Yrinn J’Onzz, who had formulated the Life Equation. (Martian Manhunter v2 #33)

Darkseid made Apokolips universally automated, run by machines that protected Apokolips and kept the populace in line, but his elite troops craved the old days of war and glory. In frustration Stompa and the Female Furies took pot shots at Darkseid’s Makkanoids while Orion invaded the planet. Granny scolded them, but they ran her off. Supervisors were ready to execute the Furies for their traitorous behavior, but in deference to their former accomplishments as warriors they were only tortured with energy bursts. (New Gods v2 #6)

Apokolips and New Genesis were fused into one planet, with a barrier separating them. Lashina theorized that the barrier didn’t extend deep underground, so she gathered the Female Furies, and they recruited Parademons and immense earth-movers and drills to tunnel to New Genesis. The work was slow going, and everyone except Lashina expressed doubts it would work. This led to the usual arguments, and Lashina and Stompa started pounding each other. Bernadeth said it was no wonder Darkseid’s plans failed when he had such rabble working for him. They eventually succeeded, and opened a hole in Supertown, where Parademons snatched a passing youth. (Jack Kirby’s Fourth World v1 #5)

The Parademons snatched god of music Harmon, and Mad Harriet butchered him. They continued building new tunnels for more surprise attacks, but Harriet stayed to enjoy her recent kill. She was discovered and apprehended by Lonar, who informed the New Gods. Big Barda felt personally responsible for the reprehensible actions of her former underlings, and joined an assault on them with Mr. Miracle and Orion. Orion slaughtered Parademons until he came upon Bernadeth and staid his hand. Darkseid and Highfather recognized he had a corrupting presence in him, and with the help of Takion they removed it, the influence turning out to be Desaad. (Jack Kirby’s Fourth World #6)
