Grace Choi is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The character was created by writer Judd Winick and artist Tom Raney, first appearing in Outsiders (vol. 3) #1 (August 2003) in the Modern Age of Comic Books. Grace is introduced as a young Asian American woman using her powers of superhuman strength, healing, and enhanced durability to make a living as a nightclub bouncer, who is reluctantly recruited by her superhero acquaintance Roy Harper to join his new crew of heroes, the Outsiders. In the course of their adventures, Grace comes to take pride in her work as a vigilante, and discovers that she is descended from a tribe of Amazons, explaining her better-than-human abilities. While working with the Outsiders, she enters into a relationship with her teammate Thunder, the daughter of superhero and Outsider-founding member Black Lightning. Outside of comics, Choi appears in the Arrowverse television series Black Lightning, portrayed by Chantal Thuy. Grace Choi's history is explored in the "Outsiders: Most Wanted" arc, in which it is revealed that she was previously the victim of a prostitution ring. Upon reaching puberty, Grace used her then-nascent metahuman powers to escape, and spent the next several years living independently, until her recruitment into the Outsiders. In her first appearance in Outsiders (vol. 3) #1, Grace is working as a bouncer for Chaney's, a nightclub in Metropolis that is primarily frequented by metahumans. Roy Harper recruits Grace into his iteration of the Outsiders, convincing her that being part of the group will pay her three times more than her bouncer job.
