Inque

The Character

Slipping from shadow to shadow slides a living patch of darkness. Her name is Inque, and she is a corporate spy and saboteur. Created in a mysterious genetic experiment, Inque now sells herself to the highest bidder, using her liquid, metamorphing body to sneak into enemy corporations and cause massive destruction.

Powers hires her to attack a competing corporation owned by the son of Bruce Wayne's old vice president. However, she doesn't expect an encounter with Batman. Frozen using Freeze's ray gun in their first encounter she escaped from her icy prison to fight batman again. This time she captures Batman, forcing Bruce to don the mantle of Batman again. In the end she apparently dies in the rain.

Parallels and Thoughts

It's interesting that the first arch-villain that Terry faces is female. It's not that surprising though, considering that the most female villains from Batman: The Animated Series are among the most popular characters of the show. Inque is a female equivalent of Clay face, but is both darker and more liquid. She lives in the darkness, and can infiltrate even the most secure areas. Though her origin is not disclosed, it seems to have similarities to what happened to Matt Hagen to make him Clay face, an accident at the hands of a large corporation. They share the same weakness of water, but Inque seems to be more powerful, and a more dangerous opponent.
