Fictional character biography
Laura De Mille is a French actress who develops an evil split personality following an automobile accident. The Brain and Monsieur Mallah recruit her into the Brotherhood of Evil and perform several surgeries to give her shapeshifting abilities and suppress her good half.
The Chief later helps Rouge overcome her evil side and ally with the Doom Patrol. After reverting to her evil state, Rouge returns to battling the Doom Patrol before Changeling kills her.[3]
Madame Rouge has largely remained dead since. In Blackest Night, she is temporarily resurrected as a Black Lantern. Furthermore, her daughter Gemini succeeds her as a member of the Brotherhood of Evil.[4][5][6]
Powers and abilities
Originally, Madame Rouge was a master of disguise.[7] Later, the Brain alters Rouge's molecular structure, giving her an amorphous physiology. She can stretch her body to incredible lengths and mimic the appearance of any person at will.[8]
