Walter Shreeve (DCAU)

Shriek is an enemy of the second Batman.

History

Walter Shreeve was a highly skilled audio engineer. He tried to find a more traditional line of work with Wayne-Powers using his sound technology, however, Derek Powers saw no profit in it and threatened to cut his funding. In order to save his business, Shreeve created a suit of sound for demolition. Powers saw no real use of it, until he discovered it could be used to destroy more than blocks. In order to please Powers, Shreeve agreed to assassinate Bruce Wayne. As a result, he became Shriek; a villain with sound based powers. Shriek is able to use sound vibrations to create earthquakes and other destructive properties. He's also able to "mute" all sound in a surrounding area. He also possesses the ability to transmit radio signals to receivers the size of a paperclip.

After his first encounter with Batman, Shriek's suit was damaged, which caused him to lose all sense of hearing.
