Who is Roxy Rocket?

History Roxanne Sutton was a stunt woman in Hollywood , often covering for various actresses and on occasion, several men. Her main reason for working as a stunt double was that she enjoyed the adrenaline rush and the thrill provided when engaging in the dangerous stunts. Eventually, she found that the thrill was not enough and she quit to find a better source: Gotham City . There she began stealing jewels for the Penguin and escaping on her rocket. When Batman took large risks to prevent her, she thought she had found someone who enjoyed the thrills of living life dangerously. This belief ended after he gets her arrested. She then tried her hand at Metropolis with similar results. At one point, Chronos had captured key members of the Justice League and Hawkgirl took it upon herself to impersonate the already imprisoned Roxy Rocket in order to save her teammates.
