Some time thereafter, Scott himself was returned to his true physical age, as well. This resulted in re-aging Molly, but making her whole once again. Scott fought his way through Hell to obtain it and, with the help of the young Green Lantern Kyle Rayner, returned it to the Harlequin's body.
Her body became that of a young woman (who had the power to create nightmares) but her soul remained in Hell. In despair over the rift this had caused between them, Molly sold her soul to the demon Neron in return for youth during the " Underworld Unleashed" storyline. As the years passed a problem developed for the two the Starheart (which gave Scott his powers) had reversed his aging processes, so he was physically a young man while Molly had since aged into an old woman. Years later, after the death of his first wife Rose Canton, Alan Scott realized that he had loved Molly all this time and they got married. On one occasion, she assisted Green Lantern, Superman and Lois Lane in capturing another foe of her love, the Sportsmaster. She made a deal with the government in which she went on intelligence missions in return for amnesty for her past crimes and then quietly retired.
Despite being attracted to the Harlequin, Scott never entered into a relationship with her and she eventually gave up in despair. She had a deep running altruistic streak, which occasionally led her to join forces with her enemy/would-be love interest. She briefly joined the Injustice Society until she turned on them by aiding the Justice Society of America. Her crimes tended to be harmless and mostly for show, although the two clashed on several occasions in the late 1940s. Mayne developed a crush on Scott and, donning a colorful costume (which included harlequin glasses, a conical hat and a mandolin), started a life of crime to attract his attention.
