| * March 22: One evening while waiting on the steps of the United States Capitol, Sandra Knight saves her father [[Henry Knight|Senator Harold Henry Knight]] (a former judge) from getting shot by an assassin named Ace Diamond, and calls herself a "phantom lady" while doing so. Modifying a useless black-light ray device sent to her father to create her blackout ray, Sandra decides to start adventuring as a costumed mystery-woman called **[[Phantom Lady (Earth-X)|Phantom Lady]]**, and soon creates a yellow and green costume for herself, as well as equipping the front and the back of a black roadster with blackout rays. Don Borden, a State Department investigator, is Sandra Knight's fiancé. //Note: While the Earth-2 Sandra Knight received a black-light ray from Prof. Abraham Davis, the Earth-X Sandra Knight may have received the invention from a different inventor entirely, possibly having some connection with the Black Condor's black light ray.
