Dark Angel (Earth-Seven)

Dark Angel is the analog of Donna Troy from another world, with a long history of machinations against the Amazons.

History

Dark Angel was Donna Troy's counterpart from Earth-Seven and was saved from the burning apartment by the Anti-Monitor, who raised her to serve him much as the Monitor had saved and raised Harbinger.

During World War II, Baroness Paula Von Gunther summoned her, who then took over Von Gunther's body and attacked Wonder Woman and the Justice Society with her mythical might.^[1]

Hippolyta battled Dark Angel on many occasions, and eventually Dark Angel appeared on Themyscira. She intended to kidnap Princess Diana, but instead kidnapped her magical double. She forced the double (whom she thought was Diana) to live thousands of lifetimes, each one ending in tragedy. She hoped the cumulative effect would drive Hippolyta insane. Instead, the double was able to grow stronger, and finally became an independent entity now known as Donna Troy.

At some point, Dark Angel separated herself from von Gunther as The Baroness was the one healing Donna Troy after she defeated Dark Angel.^[2][3]

Return of Donna Troy

 Main article: Donna Troy

When the Multiverse was reconfigured in one single Universe, Dark Angel, who had somehow escaped the compression of every Donna Troy into one single person in the new Earth, sought to kill Donna and make her relive the lives of the other alternate Donnas as a way to avoid the merging and remain the last one standing. When Dark Angel was defeated, Donna became the real sum of every Donna Troy that existed on every Earth, a living key to the lost Multiverse.

One Year Later

A year after the events of Infinite Crisis, Dark Angel appeared as the servant of the Monitors. She tested Supergirl to see if she was indeed the proper persona to exist in the current DC Universe. After the test Dark Angel told Supergirl that it was her job to prod and provoke questionable entities or anomalies, in order to ensure their veracity in the world. Believing Supergirl to be out of place in the timestream Dark Angel was about to erase Supergirl's existence but was stopped by one of the 52 Monitors before she could do so and was re-assigned to another unknown task. This task is later revealed to be the destruction of the entirety of Earth-48, the Forerunner home planet.^[4] She later pursues Donna Troy, Kyle Rayner and Jason Todd through the Multiverse (possibly at the Monitors' behest), inquiring to the denizens of the Wildstorm Universe (Earth-50) as to whether her lookalike had passed through.^[5] Dark Angel later disguised as an Oracle on Earth-33, turning the conjurers against Forerunner when she arrives.^[6] Dark Angel then sheds her disguise and attacks Forerunner, killing the Earth-33 version of Starman before she is defeated. She escapes before Forerunner can finish her.^[7]
