Plot
Nexus Girl, whose original name is unpronouncable to human, was allegedly born the child of alien parents on a desolate planetoid in the Proxima Centaury galaxy, whose people were usually scavengers and bounty hunters active in the wider universe. Her parents came to look for work on Earth when Nexi was a child, but were murdered by human gangsters in Wales, who, with the aliens being weakened by the cold (a weakness shared by Nexi), did not realise who they were tangling with. The gang did not get away unscathed, as Nexi's parents used the Nexus Stone to wipe out their killers, but the damage was done and they soon expired. After some time wandering on her own, the young alien girl was picked up by Section P where she grew up in “relative safety, away from prying eyes”, getting on well with the other members of the team and being eager to prove herself as a superhero in her own right.
