On Laurie's 20th birthday they moved to their own apartment in Washington. Her mother did not approve of it, likening Laurie's relationship with Manhattan to being the equivalent of sleeping with an H-bomb. The relationship brought the anger of Slater who left him. Drawn to him from the moment she first saw him, Laurie worked with Manhattan in some of his various domestic assignments, such as patrolling that May near the Chrysler building. Shortly after the meeting of the Crimebusters, Laurie met and became involved with Jon Osterman aka Doctor Manhattan.
Disgusted and deeply saddened for her mother's pain, Laurie never forgave the Comedian for his actions, though it seems that as time passed, and in a complicated way, Sally was able to come to terms with it, even to the point that she was willing to defend the Comedian from Laurie's derogatory remarks after he was murdered.
The following car ride home was when Sally told her daughter of her history with the Comedian (but did not tell her that the Comedian was her father).
Laurie noted that the Comedian looked sad as he watched them drive away, and she felt sorry for him. Īfter the meeting broke up, Laurie met the Comedian outside, who commented and complimented her for being the spitting image of her mother, but their conversation was broken up quickly by an angry Sally. During the meeting, young Laurie exchanged awkward smiles with the Nite Owl II and long glances with the godlike Doctor Manhattan, causing anger to his companion, Janey Slater. Laurie entered the home of Captain Metropolis while Sally waited outside in a limousine for her to finish. Sally Jupiter decided that it was time to leave California and moved herself and Laurie back to New York City, just in time for Laurie to make her official debut as the youngest member of the Crimebusters. In 1966, she acted like an agent for her daughter, picking out her revealing costume. This ignited Sally's motivations for Laurie's future. īy 1962 Laurie was living with her mother in a Los Angeles villa where Sally's former Minutemen teammates such as Nelson Gardner, Byron Lewis, and Hollis Mason would pay them a visit, like when the Mason came to discuss the book he was writing. She spent much of her childhood by working out in the gym, alone. Laurie never held much interest in becoming her mother's successor but went along with Sally's wishes anyway. She had bought her GI Joe with spare uniforms. Since when she was little, Laurie wanted to work with animals, however, Sally pushed her into the "family business" of costumed crimefighting. Growing up, the auburn-haired Laurie knew Laurence was not her biological father, and always suspected (later proven incorrectly) that her real dad was Hooded Justice, likely because they were, Laurie believed, dating during the 1940s. In reality, Laurence scolded Sally for having another affair with the Comedian. Laurie's first memory was when she was around 5 years old during one night in 1954, when she caught her mother and Laurence, arguing and fighting over their lives and how they ended up together. Laurel Jane "Laurie" Juspeczyk was born on Decemand was raised by her mother, Sally Jupiter, and her husband, Laurence Schexnayder It was also around this time that problems in the couple's marriage began to occur soon after their daughter's birth and their relationship started to crumble as a result.
