The (Goliath) Beetle: Leila Davis Lincoln
The Beetle of Earth-4622.
Mother to White Rabbit, and wife to Tombstone.
Info + two alternate suit colorations:
Leila was a prominent minor villain when she met Tombstone. She went into a partial hiatus from villainy as she settled down with him and had her daughter, Lorina. She lives a rather happy and healthy life as a relatively normal civilian. However, she hasn't entirely quit her life as a villain, every now and again she'll don her armor and buzz around NY.
During her days as a villain prior to meeting her husband, she was the leader of a small gang. Highly skilled in technology, she built the original suit herself. Originally intending for it to be used for protection and physical enhancement, she was denied the funds and green light to go ahead with her little proposed project.. being told that Stark Industries had made a major ruling that specialized armor production was to be forbidden from being manufactured for commercial or military use. So.. She revised her suit and improved it, making the final product she wears to this day.
Her suit allows her the gift of flight, enhanced strength and speed, and the highly durable armor provides her with protection from most forms of attack. It is mildly bulky, but surprisingly lightweight and easy to move in.
Leila utilized this suit to her advantage and crafted lesser versions of the suit for the handful of people she managed to wrangle onto her side. Her and her gang were often referred to as "The Infestation" from the press.. she felt proud of herself. For a time, at first, she had sought revenge on Stark Industries for denying her the chance to develop her suits for a profit she needed, but after being fought back against by The Fantastic Four, she buzzed off to somewhere else.
Finding her way into Brooklyn, she stumbled across Tombstone. Her gang and his clashed, a near match in strength, both were impressed by the other and settled on a truce, a tie. They worked a few times together, providing the other with their special aid. After some time, Leila and Tombstone had grown close and eventually tied the knot.
The exploits of "The Beetle" and her Infestation gang were almost forgotten by the public, that is.. until they popped up again when the heroic Cryptid Crawler made herself known as an 'enemy' to her dear Tombstone.
