'''Windfall''' is a [[fictional character]] and reformed supervillain in the [[DC Comics]] [[DC Universe|universe]]. 

==Fictional character biography==
'''Wendy Jones''' has aerokinetic abilities. Originally a member of the nature-themed [[supervillain]] group called the [[Masters of Disaster (comics)|Masters of Disaster]], Windfall helps fight the [[Outsiders (comics)|The Outsiders]] on more than one occasion. The second time was when the Masters were helping [[Baron Bedlam]] in a Soviet-backed invasion of Markovia. 

During this incident, she again helps to save the life of the [[superhero]]ine [[Halo (comics)|Halo]] despite orders from the team leader and Windfall's sister, the homicidal [[New Wave (comics)|New Wave]]. The tensions between the two is only partially calmed with the intervention of [[Shakedown (comics)|Shakedown]]. These incidents lead to Windfall quitting the team and beginning a lengthy stint with the Outsiders. 

During the 1987 Outsiders special, Windfall helps in a reversal of her original appereance. Markovia is again under threat of invasion by outside forces. She assists the Outsiders and [[Infinity Inc.]] in freeing the country.

She temporarily leaves the Outsiders and ends up associated with [[Strike Force Kobra]]. As part of this group she fights her old comrades on at least one occasion. Coming to her senses again, she rejoins the Outsiders briefly. She suffers with them in the reality-defying tortures of [[Felix Faust]]'s home dimension. The Outsiders escape only when Faust's items of power are destroyed.

Windfall later left adventuring behind and returned to college. However, while in school she was invited to a party at a fraternity house, where she was druggged and raped by members of the fraternity. She was further humiliated when pictures of the act were posted on the internet and was subsequently expelled from school. Windfall retaliated by using her powers to [[asphyxiate]] her tormentors, leading to her recruitment by [[Amanda Waller]] for the [[Suicide Squad]]. 

Windfall accompanied the Squad on a mission to the Middle East in an effort to destroy a designer bio-weapon, the Crimson Tears virus. During the mission, the group was betrayed by one of its members, the [[General Wade Eiling|General]], who led a mutiny of the team from within. One of his co-conspirators, [[Thinker (comics)|Cliff Carmichael]] hijacked control of Squad member [[Chemo (comics)|Chemo]], using it to attack those Squad members not in on the mutiny. Windfall attempted to use her powers to shield the group with an air wall, but wasn't able to contain the chemical giant's attack. She died when Chemo's blast overcame her shield, reducing her to a [[skeleton]].
