Spellbinder is a name used by several supervillains in the DC Universe. The first was Delbert Billings, a costumed super-villain and enemy to Batman. He began his career as an art thief in Gotham City, using colorful hypnotic weapons to distract his opponents. There was a second Spellbinder who was a member of the League Busters. Delbert's girlfriend Fay Moffitt gained illusion-casting powers during Underworld Unleashed, when she took a deal with Neron that Delbert turned down. A futuristic version of the character named Ira Billings was introduced in the Batman Beyond future. During the Infinite Frontier, Charles Dante takes the mantle and became the new Spellbinder.
Spellbinder was created by John Broome and Sheldon Moldoff, first appearing in Detective Comics #358 (1966).
