Curaré

The Character

Curare was dispatched to kill D.A. Sam Young, as per the orders from the League of Assassins. The league is an elite force of killers who kill for the highest bidder. Armed with a sword capable of cutting through anything, the Gotham Police are no match for her. But then she hasn't met Batman yet! At the end of her first appearance she is hunted by the League for failure to complete her task, but she returns with a vengeance to hunt down all members of The League of Assassins only to be stopped by Batman again.

Parallels and Thoughts

While Curare is more reminiscent of Kyodai Ken , Bruce's old ninja enemy that he trained with, this isn't the first time Batman tangled with the League of Assassins. Batman tangled with the League, comprising of three ninjas, in the story "The Wall" in Batman #431 (March 1989). The story involved a similar theme where the League was sent to eliminate a D.A.(coincidence!).Besides this the League of Assassins and Curare remind one of the creepy Society of Shadows in BTAS.
