HISTORY
Born in the year 2442, Michelle was Booster Gold's younger sister. When Booster left his time for the 20th century, Michelle was left penniless, and lived on the schoolbus that she drove for a living. When Booster returned from the past, he was attacked by Police Sergeant Broderick, and would have been executed had Michelle not intervened. When Booster and his friends returned to the past (our present), Michelle accompanied them, even temporarily becoming the superhero Goldstar (originally the costumed identity of Trixie Collins, Booster's secretary)
While on vacation, Michelle was tracked down and kidnapped by Aliens from Dimension X. Michelle escaped from her shackles, and joined Booster on an assault against the aliens. When the two heroes were leaving, Michelle sacrificed her life, so that Booster could escape. She was buried along the Maine Coast.
Years later Rip Hunter retrieved her from the timestream moments before her death and brought her back to the present where she has since been operating as Goldstar.
