She was never meant to be anything but a joke to spite pissy fanboys who kept hounding her creator Steve Ditko (of Spider-Man fame) about "Who would beat X in a fight?", or "Could X outlift Hulk if blah blah blah....?". He got so sick of thier horseshit he just said "You want the strongest character in all of Marvel, who can beat literally ANYONE? FINE!! HERE SHE IS, SHE BEATS GALACTUS LIKE ITS NOTHING AND MAKES DOOM PISS IN HIS ARMOR, AND SHE TALKS TO GODDAMN SQUIRRELS!!!! HAPPY?!?!"
