MC2 Mystery: Who are Bluestreak's Parents?
Hardly anything is known about the background of Bluestreak a.k.a. Blue Kelso. The last name of Kelso does not seem to come from any established character in Marvel up to that time. Bluestreak could be a runaway, but not a Runaway or could have other reasons for hiding her identity. In Quasar #17, an Elder of the Universe called The Runner held a competition for all the speedsters on Earth. Those who participated provide a good jumping off point to help speculate who Bluestreak's parents may be. Since Bluestreak seems to be Caucasian, the female participants in the race, Captain Marvel (Monica Rambeau) and Black Racer are African-American, they are not likely to be her mother. James Sanders a.k.a Speed Demon and Lelia Davis--Speed Demon (James Sanders) had a brief flirtation with getaway driver Lelia Davis in Deadly Foes of Spider-Man. However, it was a ruse on Lelia's part since she was a widow of the Ringer and only infiltrated the Syndicate to get revenge on the Beetle.
