KotC ENCOUNTERS: 
- amongst those to try to capture the rogue Knights when they attempted to liberate Victor Stewart from the cellblock where he was being held. Grew irritated at Templar's attempts to mentally force her from the fray, but was more devastated by the punishing physical attacks of Black Blur which left her broken and bleeding on the battlefield. Despite this, she continued the fight, particularly in her pursuit of the escaping HexAngel. Her post-fight debrief was curiously forgiving of Blur's actions.

- was present at the Rock Against Registration benefit concert where she seemed to give Black Blur the benefit of the doubt when she teamed up with him in a largely unsuccessful attempt to stop the rampage of the Replicant Black Blur.

- maintained a certain degree of contact with Black Blur after this fight, and was responsible for the alert that brought the group to Washington, D.C., to help the Minute Men battle a reprogrammed Enforcer and then prevent a massacre at the Capitol Building. Singlehandedly responsible for rescuing most of the Senators from that situation.

- numbered amongst those assigned to escort the captive Phoenix to the Humanidyne labs as part of the operation known colloquially as Operation Goody Goody Two Shoes. When this endeavor came under the unexpected assault of minions of Dr. Cyclops, Liberty escaped and managed to alert the remaining Knights, who effected a rescue of Phoenix along with most of the members of the former escort team.

- was contacted by the Knights who tipped her to the upcoming Operation Face-Off, allowing her to muster the Freedom Brigade and Power Patrol in thwarting a terrorist strike by Jihad against the Statue of Liberty.

KotC COMMENTS: 
- Black Blur: "It's not my fault! She ran into my fist!"
- Sub-Zero: "Hey, babe. Wanna see where else I can project ice bolts from?"
- Phoenix: "What is a nice girl like her doing in a team like that?!?"
