Fictional character history

Aym Geronimo was born Amethyst Geronimo in the Havasupai reservation. Growing up with a burning curiosity for the unknown, Aym studied diligently in school and became a professional at several different sciences. Past tales have taken Aym all across Earth from the jungles of South America in "Trap Dancing" searching for a medicinal plant, to the snow capped Rockies to save a child in "Aym Radio"...both in Shooting Star Comics Anthology #1. In SSCA #2, she tested the experimental "Rainmaker" while under fire in Algeria. In SSCA #3, she foiled a terrorist attack on the Crazy Horse monument in "Aym Got Game." In the fourth issue of SSCA, she met Fishnet Angel in "Idol Hands" and fell from a dirigible in "Idol Mine." Finally we learned of an inspirational night in Aym's past at the foot of the future Wonder Wall in "Medicine Song." in Shooting Star Anthology 5. She also met her nemesis and his operatives in "Mad Dogs and Irishmen" in the pages of the SSC Shooting Gallery Convention Special.
