Bluestreak (Blue Kelso) is a fictional character who appeared in the Marvel Comics series A-Next. Though not related to Quicksilver, her powers and costume certainly invoke him, in the same way many of the MC2 universe characters resemble those of Earth-616.
[edit] Ficitional character history
Little is known about the energetic Bluestreak's past. It is known that she was a mutant gifted with incredible speed, who had left the newest incarnation of the X-Men (the X-People) because they were not flashy enough for her. She was invited to join the Dream Team of new Avengers who were going to become members A-Next. She quickly developed a crush on teammate J2 (a fact to which he was completely oblivious). Cocky and impulsive, Bluestreak often had problems following the orders of Mainframe. The only thing that surpassed her exuberant attitude was her skill at using her speed. When Mainframe's inert body needed to be taken across the city in less than a minute, she placed him on a gurney and covered the needed distance in virtually no time at all, even remarking that she could have stopped for a sandwich, but did not want to show off.
Bluestreak's real name was revealed in the new A-Z handbook #1 as Blue Kelso. She is not to be confused with the deceased similarly named, techno-based villain Blue Streak.
[edit] Powers
Bluestreak is a mutant capable of running at superhuman speeds. Her top velocity is unknown, but she can exceed the speed of sound. She also possesses incredible stamina and can run for long periods of time without showing any signs of fatigue.
