Black Bat is a fictional character who first appeared in the Amalgam Comics' Bruce Wayne Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. #1. She is a combination of Batgirl from DC Comics and Black Cat from Marvel Comics.
[edit] History
Barbara Gordon Hardy was an ex-thief who was determined to be a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent. Using her natural athletic skills to fight crime, she created a superheroic identity, the Black Bat. She quickly proved her worth to S.H.I.E.L.D agent Bruce Wayne. Barbara was invited to join the secret organization.
Over a short peroid of time, Black Bat and Bruce became more than teammates, and soon fell in love. Bruce was planning on marrying her, when they were sent on a mission to stop a doomsday weapon. She and Bruce managed to destroy the weapon, but seemingly lost Bruce in an explosion. It is unknown if Bruce escaped, or if Black Bat managed to save the man she loved.
[edit] Powers
Black Bat has no superhuman powers, but is an expert in many forms of martial arts, and has a background in breaking-and-entering and theft (which made her a natural spy). She augments her skills with weapons such as bolas and Bat-A-Rangs. She can fly with the aid of her jet-pack.
