Lea Specter is a main character in the Fallout comic series and a member of the eponymous irregular unit. In the prequel Issue #0, she is addressed as "Barbara" (but confirmed to be Lea Specter, the estranged sister of Rachel Specter, elsewhere in the same issue), and gets very upset when the otherwise unnamed MechWarrior piloting a Centurion and wearing a neurohelmet labeled "Trainer 07" is implicitly killed by a Jade Falcon Thor.

In Issue 1, Hauptmann Lea Specter has somehow wound up on the DropShip that escaped Somerset for Star's End but crash-landed there. She commandeers a recon jeep and includes herself with the 'Mechs that emerge from the wrecked DropShip to fight Clan pursuers on the ground.

In Issue 2, she butts heads with Lt. Bedford Beauregard because she technically outranks him, but he proves more adept at navigating the pirate haven of Star's End and even ropes her into the irregular 'Mech unit he is forming in service to Morgan Fletcher, over Specter's objections.

In Issue 3, Lea Specter joins the first combat mission of the Fallout unit in a borrowed Rakshasa (an anachronism given the 'Mech was not yet designed at the time). Her team makes contact with a FedCom soldier who leads them to a 'Mech hangar which they proceed to plunder.

In Issue 4, the Star's End pirates and the Fallout team, including Lea Specter, fight a series of battles against Clan Jade Falcon elements in the system. The fight ends when the Clan personnel leave after being led to believe the system's infrastructure was destroyed beyond repair.[2]
