Early Life[]

Reva Connors was born and raised in Harlem, Manhattan, New York City, New York. She and her brother Cam were friends with Carl Lucas prior to his transformation into the powerful, steel-skinned superhero "Luke Cage". As they got older she began dating Lucas.[1]

Willis & Lucas[]

Lucas, however, joined a gang called the Rivals along with Willis Stryker. They engaged in many gang fights with The Diablos, a rival gang. He also committed petty crimes and worked for a crime lord named Sonny Caputo.[1] Carl changed his life and found an honest job while Willis became a skilled gangster but they remained good friends. Reva loved them both but cared for Luke more and the two became engaged.[2]

Death[]

Willis, devastated by jealousy, framed him by hiding drugs where Carl lived. The drugs belonged to the Maggia so they hunted Willis but ended up killing Reva by shooting her in the neck. Luke was sent to Seagate Prison.[2]
