Background
Meiko showed up to meet her cousin in a Carnival, and soon Karsano
(Dragonfly I) shows up
with a pack of ninja to make the second attempt on her life. Thanks to
Spider-Man's
interference, he fails. Later, at Angela's appartment, Meiko reveals that
Karsano was her ex-fiancee. They trained and perfected martial arts together.
When he joined the True Believers, he was given the top ninja rank, Dragonfly.
He became distant, and Madam Qwa, the cult's leader, ordered him to kill her.
This is the soft version she tells her cousin (and that Spidey overhears).
She forgets to mention that she joined the True Believers
too, and that if he and his ninja fail, she becomes the next Dragonfly.
According to the TB code of honor, he has only one more try to kill Meiko.
He shows up right after she finishes her story. Once again Spidey interferes.
Once again, Karsano fails. He commits ritual suicide, and Meiko goes to meet
Madam Qwa, where she's confirmed as the new Dragonfly.
It turns out that the TB are working for
Black Tarantula,
and the Black Tarantula wants
Joe "Robbie" Robertson dead with
"evidence" that incriminates
Rose III.
Dragonfly II is assigned for the kill. Meanwhile, the Rose has re-empowered
Electro, and sends him out to
take care of Black Tarantula's ninja who are hurting his business. Spidey
follows Meiko, Electro follows the news of ninja sightings, and it comes to
a big brawl. Spidey takes out the ninja, Electro takes out Dragonfly, some
more ninja, and Spider-Man, and Joe Robertson pulls Meiko to safety.
Honor-bound, she can no longer kill him now that he saved her life. He
takes advantage of that to confirm some info on the Black Tarantula.
Electro leaves, after making Spidey beg for his life. Meiko leaves, after
Joe lets her.
The Hand came to NY after their mortal enemies, the True Believers ("freaks
who diverted from The Hand's path"). Elektra came to NY after The Hand.
Madam Qwa and Yano (another ninja servant) berate Meiko for her failure.
Yano wants her head, but Qwa decides to give her a second chance. She must
prove her loyalty, by killing her cousin. Meiko stops short from stabbing
her cousin's back, and leaves. Yano, who was following her, prepares for
the kill. She says he's entitled to it, but he says that after that, he'll
kill her cousin anyway. Spidey and Elektra arrive. They and Meiko take out
Yano and his ninja, thus Meiko wins back her cousin's life. Elektra advises
Meiko on how to remain in the path of good, and they both leave. Dragonfly
has not been seen since.
