[edit] History

Sarah Brandeis was a regular working woman, assisting the archaeologist Dr. McGillicuddy. During his work, he found the Gem of Thebis, an item of great magic power. The sinister Hellsignor came seeking it, clashing with various superheroes in the process. To prevent the necklaced gem from falling into his hands, the Point Man, member of the Omega Rangers, tossed the artifact around Sarah's neck. In that moment, for better or worse, she found the power and responsibility of Cleopatra irrevocably thrust upon her. Joining the Rangers, who helped her adjust to what she had become, she became the second superhero to bear the name Cleopatra.

In the present day, she serves within the Honor Guard. [edit] Powers

Cleopatra carries the Sun-Staff of Ra which the first Cleopatra also wielded in a somewhat different form. This mystic weapon can generate a pyramid-shaped force field called a "Power-Pyramid." By controlling their size, she uses them to bind adversaries.

She or her staff also possess a weather-shaping ability, and many are the foes who've been harried by storm and struck by lightning. She can survive in space without artificial protective gear, and she can fly. Some of these powers may be natural, while others might be dependent upon magical forces within her staff.

Cleopatra has significant super-strength, putting her on the level of elite, powerful heroes like Samaritan and the Gentleman. [edit] Speculations, Observations and Theories:

Sarah's regular, casual speech is noticeably different from Cleopatra's grand, formal elocution. She sometimes talks about herself in the third person.

In the Astro City: Beautie Special, following an adventure with Honor Guard, she casually mentions an "afternoon lecture" in her schedule for the day. Considering her connection to Dr. McGillicuddy, this might indicate her position as a professor of archeology at an area University.

She switches between her Sarah Brandeis and Cleopatra IDs via transformation. [edit] Timelines of Interest

Cleopatra II
