Overview
Roxy Rocket was a thief and thill-seeker stopped by Batman.
History
Roxanne Sutton was a high-profile stuntwoman who would take any risk performing stunts for both male and female roles in major motion pictures. However her lust for adrenaline destroyed her career, as she began taking bigger and bigger risks and making stunts more dangerous than needed to be. With that, no insurance company would take on such a liability and ultimately dropped her. Without an insurance provider, no studio would hire her which ended Sutton's Hollywood career.
Finding a new source of both income and danger, she turned to crime. She built a rocket and named herself "Roxy Rocket"; becoming a daring thief and fencing her stolen goods to Penguin. Her recklessness eventually became her undoing, when she was defeated by Batman. She saw him as the ultimate, equal risk-taker and utterly fearless. In a game of high-altitude chicken, Batman rescues her only to turn her over to the authorities.
