Deadman complains, in Christmas Day, about nobody sees him helping people, when someone who sees him, tells him about the silent and altruistic work of the Super-Heroes, and refering to herself says: "...We do it because it needs to be done. Because if we don't, no one else will. And we do it even if no one knows what we've done. Even if no one knows we exists". When Deadman ask for her name, she answers: "My name is Kara. Though I doubt that'll mean anything to you."
