Flygirl

Flygirl is a fictional character in The Mighty Crusaders , published by Archie Comics.

Kim Brand was an actress rescued by The Fly from a fall from a hotel window in issue #13 of The Adventures of the Fly. Kim fell in love with the superhero. When an enemy of the Fly arranged for two simultaneous crimes, reasoning that the hero could not be in two places at the same time, Turan, one of the Fly People, appeared to Kim in issue #14.

Turan, who had granted Tommy Troy the power to become the Fly, gave Kim a ring with a fly-shaped emblem. By rubbing the ring and saying "I wish I were Flygirl," she exchanged bodies with the Fly People's dimension and became a costumed superheroine. To return to her own identity, all she had to do was utter her name.

In addition to appearing in the Fly's title, she also appeared in short stories in other Archie titles (Pep #153, 155, 156, 158 and Laugh #136, 137, 143).

Note: Kim had nothing to do with the Fly Girls, a quintet of dancers on Fox's In Living Color.
