Origin
In order to deal with the mutant right’s activist Reverend William Conover, Simon Trask, head of the anti-mutant organization known as Humanity’s Last Stand, formed his own version of the Mutant Liberation Front, allowing him to capture Conover and discredit mutants at the same time. Kylie Kopeikin was given superhuman abilities through artificial means and became a member of this fake MLF team under the name Blindspot.
Creation
Blindspot was created by John Ostrander, Tom Lyle, and Robert Jones.

Unmasked
When Carl Denti, an FBI agent otherwise known as the X-Cutioner, claimed to have evidence that the MLF were not actually mutants, Blindspot was among those MLF members who were sent to apprehend him. Blindspot took part in battling the Punisher and SHIELD agent Kymberly Taylor who were defending Denti, but the MLF ultimately succeeded in capturing him, and brought him to the Humanity’s Last Stand compound, unaware this was part of the Punisher’s plan.
Dead To Rights
Escaping the compound, Denti was able to lead the Punisher and Taylor to it, and together they battled the MLF once again. Blindspot however refused fight for the MLF, as she didn’t want to abandon her family in the compound. Simon Trask ended up killing her for her insubordination.
Powers and Abilities
Through either chemical or technological means, Blindspot was able to project intense flashes of light from her hands. Like the rest of Trask’s MLF, she also had a teleportation device incorporated into her costume.
