Joan Dale was the war-time superhero Miss America, powered by the spirit of the Statue of Liberty itself. She was a member of the All-Star Squadron and the Freedom Fighters.

In the late spring of 1941 on Liberty Island, reporter Joan Dale had a dream that the Statue of Liberty came to life and granted her the power to alter the nature of matter. She creates a colorful costume and becomes Miss America, one of America's first heroines. In truth, she had been abducted by the top-secret government agency, Project M,, and her powers were actually the result of a secret experiment. They believed the experiment to be a failure and had returned her to whence she had been taken, leaving her none the wiser.

Later that year, the Japanese plotted their attack on Pearl Harbor.  Uncle Sam learned of the attack and assembled a group of heroes called the Freedom Fighters (with Hourman, the Invisible Hood, Magno, Neon the Unknown, and the Red Torpedo) to prevent it. The mission was doomed and all but Uncle Sam seemingly perished in the fight. Sam later discovered, however, that three of his allies had survived: Miss America among them. After the mission, she was reclaimed by Project M.

When Robotman and the Young All-Stars visited Project M, they discovered that Miss America was indeed alive, albeit comatose. A battle with the Ultra-Humanite broke out, which awoke Joan from her coma. She promptly returned to the defense of her country and in late May 1942, she joined the Justice Society of America as the group's secretary.

Lyta became pregnant with the child of her teammate and lover Dr. Fate, however, Hector soon died. She moved back home with her adoptive parents, Joan and Derek Trevor, and was soon reunited with Hector, who had become the new Sandman. Learning that Hector could only exist one hour outside the Dream Dimension, Lyta and Hector married and Lyta joined Hector in the Dream Dimension. Joan and Derek Trevor attended the wedding.

A much older Joan Dale returned, to confront a youthful impostor bearing the mantle who had, under the orders of Father Time, managed to neutralize and capture the new team of Freedom Fighters.

Joan revealed that she never lost her powers, but used them to create the illusion that she had aged in order to retire and live a normal life with her husband. Now that Derek Trevor had passed away, she lets the illusion slip and resumes her youthful, heroic guise to aid Uncle Sam and his new team. While fighting the impostor Miss America, Joan discovered that she is in fact an android and destroyed her.

Later Red Bee, mutated into an alien-insect creature, mind-controlled Joan into absorbing Human Bomb's explosive energy and taking it into space. Joan then exploded, presumed to be dead.  Unbeknowst to her allies, Joan managed to keep her consciousness alive, rebuilding a new, young body from extant space materials. Evolved into a new form of life, she discarded her Miss America identity to claim her new moniker: Miss Cosmos.

Months later, Joan returned to aid the Freedom Fighters again as Miss America, explaining that her cosmic power upgrade proved temporary and that since her boosted powers faded she is now actually weaker than she was before.

Eventually, Joan Dale's powers apparently faded and she retired as Miss America. She married Admiral Derek Trevor, and eventually they become the adoptive parents of Hippolyta "Lyta" Trevor Hall, who became the modern-day Fury in Infinity, Inc.

Miss America (Madeline Joyce Frank) is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. She first appeared in Marvel Mystery Comics #49 (Nov. 1943), and was created by writer Otto Binder and artist Al Gabriele for Timely Comics, the 1940s precursor of Marvel, in the period fans and historians call the Golden Age of Comic Books.

Socially aware teenaged heiress Madeline Joyce was born in Washington, D.C., and was the niece and ward of radio mogul James Bennet, who was sponsoring a Professor Lawson, a scientist claiming to have gotten superpowers through a device that had been struck by lightning. Joyce, secretly tampering with the contraption during a thunderstorm that night, herself gained the ability to fly and great strength after lightning similarly struck, knocking her unconscious (she originally had x-ray vision, as well as other powers, but after her few early appearances they were retconned). The panicky scientist, seeing the apparently dead young woman, destroyed the device and then killed himself. Joyce survived to fight crime as the patriotically garbed Miss America, appearing regularly in Marvel Mystery Comics and All Winners Comics.

In the latter, she was a member of Timely's superhero team the All-Winners Squad, fighting alongside Captain America and Bucky, the original Human Torch and Toro, the Sub-Mariner, and the Whizzer in the group's two Golden Age adventures. In the second of these, she wore glasses, one of the extremely few superheroes to require them. Miss America made her final Golden Age appearance in Marvel Mystery Comics #85 (Feb. 1948).

Joyce was later revealed to have married fellow Golden Age superhero Robert Frank (the Whizzer). Because the two had been exposed to radiation, their first child was the radioactive mutant Nuklo.  However, Joyce died of complications stemming from childbirth with her second, stillborn child due to radiation poisoning from her first offspring while at Wundagore Mountain, Transia.   It was also suggested during this time that Joyce and Frank were the parents of Avengers members Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch, although this was ultimately refuted when it was revealed that Magneto and his wife Magda ielewere those twins' biological parents. Miss America was then retconned in 1976 as a member of the World War II super-team the Liberty Legion, set ton, D.C.between the creation of the Invaders and the post-war All-Winners Squad. As a member of the Liberty Legion, she battled the Red Skull, and alongside the Liberty Legion and Invaders she batted the Nazi super-team Super-Axis.

Miss America returned from the dead for 24 hours in the 2006 miniseries X-Statix Presents: Dead Girl, where she was revealed to be spending an eternity in Hell. However, in the All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A-Z, select entries of characters featured in that miniseries, including that of the Ancient One, state that the characters in hell were impostors.

Miss America's reanimated corpse later appears as a cyborg resident of the Core, a subterranean city populated by advanced robots.  The cyborg does battle with Miss America's former teammate, the Human Torch, and attempts to lull him into a false sense of security. The Torch however, realizes that the cyborg is not really his old friend, merely a puppet using her body.
