Kelly
Kelly, later dubbed the Invincible Woman, was originally a dour New York City financier in Reality Z-25 31-H. However, after she and her long-suffering employee Jenkins were abducted by aliens, they ended up getting superpowers, with the catch that they only worked when they were in close proximity to one another (something which greatly bothered both of them, as they couldn't stand each other's company).
Description
Physical appearance
Kelly was a lithe woman with even features. She had long, straight, fair hair and dark eyes. As an investment broker, she wore a female business suit including a jacket and skirt, although she also wore more casual clothing when not on the job. As “the Invincible Woman”, her body was enveloped in a halo of flames. (COMIC: Journey Into Misery)
Personality
Kelly was a callous sort of capitalist, who placed her business first and anybody's personal needs (even her own) second, to the extent that she was more upset about aliens destroyign her company H.Q. than about them abducting her. She was anything but emotionless, however, being in a perpetual stuck of annoyance and capable of crescendoes into outright violent rage. She was particularly insensitive towards Jenkins, whom she perceived as weak and pathetic. (COMIC: Journey Into Misery)
Powers & abilities
After Professor Xwumb'h experimented on her, Kelly acquired superpowers, although they only worked proprotional to how close she was to Jenkins. They included super-strenght sufficient to destroy an entire spaceship by herself, unaided levitation, and also the ability to burst into flames, which naturally left her unharmed. She could manipulate this fire to shoot it at targets. (COMIC: Journey Into Misery)
Biography
Early life
At some point prior to the latter moving to a secret laboratory in the Mojave Desert, Kelly somehow became friends with the friendly and cheerful scientist Professor Madison. For entirely mysterious reasons, Madison thought of Kelly as a warm and caring person. (COMIC: Ghost in the Apparatus of the Spirit in the Shell of the Machine)
Becoming the Invisible Woman
In 2010, Kelly was an investment broker with her own company H.Q.s in New York City. As she was reprimanding Jenkins for “not doing the work he'd been assigned” (he was instead threatening suicide), the building was rammed by a flying saucer. Though she tried to dodge out of its way, the two were captured and ended up onboard the ship, where they were confronted with K'orr'h, King of the Vanilla Puddings of Riegel 6. After introducing himself, K'orr'h attempted to eat them but proved unable to chew them. He spat them out, which Kelly couldn't help but make fun of.
Angered at her mockery, K'orr'h ordered the two humans to be used as experimental test subjects by Professor Xwumb'h. The erratic mad scientist, seemingly not realising the inherent problem of logistics involved, performed experiments on them which, while painful, he surmised might give them superpowers; indeed they did, and, letting her anger loose, Kelly destroyed the ship and its crew in a blast of fire. She also tried to kill Jenkins in the melee, but it turned out that the superpowers he had gained included mild invulnerability. After calming down, Kelly had no choice but to take him back to Earth with her, as they were still handcuffed to each other by chains of alien metal that defied even her strength.

Turn to darkness
After spending some time fruitlessly trying to resume a normal life while handcuffed to Jenkins, Kelly contacted her old friend Professor Madison. An appointment was made, and she flew Jenkins and herself to Madison's laboratory in the Mojave Desert. There, Madison easily broke their shackles using a robot she'd been working on, but asked them to stay for a few days so that she could analyse the two's powers and help them understand them.
In the night, a Deathray built by Madison some time earlier was broken out of her vault. Kelly reluctantly went along with Jenkins's offer for the two of them to investigate the case as “the Terrific Two”, being gifted durable superhero outfits by Madsion for the occasion. It turned out the vault had been broken into by Madison's robot, controlled by her jealous assistant Hank Richards. Kelly and Jenkins began fighting the robot while Madison and Rodney Rabbit went to confront Richards; surprisingly, Kelly was briefly knocked out during the fight.
She came to just in time to finish the robot off — and this even though it had been freed from Richard' control in the intervening time and developed an individual conscience. Although Jenkins and Madison soon excused Kelly's apparent crime, suggesting that Kelly had still been unconscious when the robot had started to talk, it was clear from Kelly's confused reaction that she had known perfectly well what she was doing.

An oasis of horrors !
The two headed home by car, with Jenkins driving, but he managed to crash the vehicle into the one tree in the entire desert. Kelly used her flight to carry the two of them further, and they ended up finding an oasis. They bathed and rested there for a little while before being startled by a group of humanoid monsters. They took refuge in a house built near the oasis, whose seemingly human owner explained that he was being besieged by the monsters, and invited them to stay the night.
However, in the night, the "monsters" broke down one of the barricaded walls and abducted Jenkins. They explained to him that, although odd-looking, they were fairly normal and the actual owners of the house, while the farmer with the gun was the real villain. After he explained the same thing to Kelly, the two returned to the house; the villain had disappeared, living behind a bomb that Kelly disposed of. Thankful, the house's owners gave the Two their car with which to continue their journey home. (COMIC: Oasis of Horror)
