Huntress

After her fiance, George Barrows, struck her in the face and left her for another woman, Diane decided to get her revenge by hunting him down like the animals she had killed on safari. She was such a skilled hunter that she did not need a gun, only a bow and quiver. Darrel Dane, aka the Doll Man, witnessed her kill Barrows and tried to stop her, but she managed to escape. She then attempted to hunt down Dane. She sent an arrow into his chest, but he wore a bulletproof vest. The Huntress kidnapped Dane’s friend, Martha, but the Doll Man managed to rescue her and send Diane to jail. The Huntress was an expert hunter who claimed that she never missed with a bow. She was apparently even more deadly with a gun, though she felt it was too easy. The Huntress could also attach a steel line to her arrows, which allowed her to scale the sides of buildings. She often attacked from rooftops. She was very athletic and daring. The Huntress also used chloroform and may have made use of bear traps. She appeared to be very wealthy, and was described as “beautiful.”
