As the Blue Bulleteer on the cover of Femforce #38 (1991) - This instance lacks a rationale

Nightveil is a fictional character, a superheroine who appears in the Femforce comic book, published by AC Comics. Her true identity is Laura Wright, daughter to a member of the United States Senate. Originally, Laura had no "super powers", but fought evil as a caped-and-masked markswoman, the Blue Bulleteer. After a near-fatal injury, she was rescued by the great wizard Azagoth who gave her mystical powers (including the ability to become a giantess). From then onwards she became Nightveil, a being of almost limitless power who combats supernatural villains like "The Shroud" and the "Great God Capricorn". Her nemesis is beautiful but evil Alizarin Crimson.

Nightveil (in her Blue Bulleteer identity) is an adaptation of the Golden Age superhero, Phantom Lady. AC had initially sought to publish new adventures of that character, believing that it had acquired the rights, but DC Comics asserted that it had instead purchased the rights to the character and AC declined to challenge the larger publisher.
