Gemini De Mille
Gemini De Mille is the daughter of Madame Rouge. In the Beast Boy mini-series, she seeks revenge against Beast Boy for killing her mother, her insanity having twisted her mother's death as the deliberate fault of Niles Caulder and Beast Boy when it was merely an accident. She attempted to frame Beast Boy for the murders of his former cast members in an old TV show. After being tracked down by Beast Boy, Gemini reveals the bound and gagged forms of Vicky Valiant and Tim Bender, two of Gar's old co-stars, whom she intends to murder. She is thwarted by Beast Boy, Flamebird, and Nightwing.[2]
Gemini later joins her mother's old group, the Brotherhood of Evil. Her first mission with them was an arms deal with Penguin in Blüdhaven, but they were defeated by Batgirl.[3]
During the "Infinite Crisis" storyline, Gemini joins the Secret Society of Super Villains.[4]
In 2016, DC Comics implemented another relaunch of its books called "DC Rebirth", which restored its continuity to a form much as it was prior to "The New 52". Gemini is pursued by Nightwing out of Blüdhaven for murdering former friends of hers. The Birds of Prey aid him in the chase. She praises a superhuman Blackbird, who has told her to cut ties with her friends and helped her develop her metahuman powers. Gemini falls victim to Blackbird's plan to drain metahumans of their powers. She returns to the Birds, Nightwing, and Green Arrow for help, who defeat Blackbird.[5]
In the series Unstoppable Doom Patrol, Gemini is shown to have regained her powers and joined the Brotherhood of Evil.[6]
Santiago and Belladonna
Santiago and Belladonna are a pair of thieves and lovers who originate from the 1940s and are obsessed with gaining mystical relics. One relic they found were mystical gauntlets that enabled them to absorb energy and keep themselves young. They operate as Gemini and target the Flash in a bid to gain his superhuman speed. These plans last until Santiago is killed by Psych during their fight with him and Flash.[7]
