Who is Velocity?

A founding member of Cyberforce, Velocity is a young woman with cybernetically enhanced speed, capable of moving at superhuman velocity. She joined the team of cyber-enhanced heroes fighting against the Cyberdata corporation that transformed them.

Few characters capture the kinetic spirit of Image Comics' bold 1992 launch quite like Velocity, who burst onto the scene in Cyberforce #1 β€” one of the founding titles of a publisher that rewrote the rules of the industry. Created by Marc Silvestri and Eric Silvestri at the very dawn of Image, she's a genuine artifact of that electric Copper/Modern Age moment when superhero comics felt dangerous and new. Over three decades of publication, she's shared panels with a compelling cast including Cyblade, Ripclaw, and Robert Bearclaw, weaving through landmark Image crossover events like Image United and Shattered Image alongside her Cyberforce home. With four key-issue appearances to her name and 63 catalog appearances spanning 1992 to 2022, Velocity is a rewarding character for any collector who wants to dig deep into the rich, sprawling history of Image's earliest and most ambitious universe.
