Ishmael I[]

The first Ishmael is a criminal who, alongside his brother Queequeg, is a shapeshifter. Both of them work for Tobias Whale. Ishmael is instructed to pose as the Gangbuster and assassinate the organizer of the gang piece summit. Black Lightning figured out who the impostor Gangbuster was. Ishmael and Queequeg were defeated by Black Lightning and the Gangbuster.^[1]

Ishmael II[]

The second Ishmael is a destitute man who was abducted and used for the experiments of the Ark Project. When he was starting to die due to the side effects of the experiments sometime after they were halted by Batman, Ra's al Ghul saved his life by dipping him into the Lazarus Pit. Since then, he has become a member of the League of Assassins.^[2]

Ishmael in other media[]

The second Ishmael appears in season 4 of Black Lightning, portrayed by Rico Ball. He is an assassin who is hired by Destiny to deal with Latavius "Lala" Johnson. After killing him and trapping his body in a cement casket, Ishmael states to Destiny that he is planning to kill 100 metahumans in order to get into the League of Assassins. As he had already killed 94 metahumans, Ishmael is further contracted by Destiny to go after Black Lightning and his allies. Though Tobias later pays him more money while intimidating Destiny to end the Kobra Cartel's gang war with the 100. After finding out what Painkiller did to Jesse Gentilucci, Tobias Whale sends Ishmael to take out Painkiller and Looker. Painkiller manages to kill Ishmael by getting his poison onto the hilt of Ishmael's sword.

Isis[]

Isis (Selina Kyle's cat)[]

Creators: Sean Catherine Derek, Laren Bright, Jules Dennis and Richard Mueller. First appearance: Batman: The Animated Series: "The Cat and the Claw: Part I" (September 1992). Abilities: Stealth.

Isis is Selina Kyle's pet cat. She often used Isis to reach narrow places and to retrieve valuable objects without the need of doing so herself. When Selina was taken to prison, Isis ran away looking for her. Isis got lost and was found on the streets by Doctor Milo, who used the cat for one of his twisted experiments. Selina found Isis, but the cat had been infected with a virus that made her more aggressive and contagious to people. Selina feared she had lost Isis forever, but Batman delivered Isis back to her, completely cured and safe. Isis was voiced by Frank Welker for most of the character's appearances. She was voiced by Dee Bradley Baker for the animated web series Gotham Girls.
