Her Higness and Silk are a pair of
con artists . Her Highness usually dresses as an old woman, complete with spectacles and white hair pulled into a bun, while Silk is an attractive young woman in a tight dress. The two meet Kid Eternity in "Hit Comics" #27, but are soon defeated by the supernatural hero.While Her Highness made a cover appearance on "Hit Comics" #28, the duo generally appeared in short, 5 to 6 page back-up stories. Their stories were mostly played for laughs; Her Highness and Silk are hardly ever successful at their con games, and their dialogue was fairly light-hearted. Their final Golden Age appearances was in "Hit Comics" #57 (March 1949)
Her Highness and Silk were two of the characters acquired by
DC Comics when they purchased the rights to Quality Comics. They made their first DC Comics appearance at "World's Finest" #282 (1982) in a Captain Marvel story that guest-starred Kid Eternity, at a time whenDC Comics had acquired both families of characters, and writerE. Nelson Bridwell decided that Freddy Freeman (Captain Marvel, Jr. ) and Kid Eternity were brothers. In the story Her Highness and Silk join forces with long time Marvel Family foeAunt Minerva , and attempt to use Uncle Dudley as a cover to steal money from the circus. Their old nemesis Kid Eternity recognizes the duo, and tips off the Marvel Family to their scheme.External links
