Danger Girl

Main

Abbey Chase

Abbey is a champion marksman, virtuoso of languages, scholar of world history, and (most widely) a heart-stopping femme fatale. Though spending the majority of her young life as a loner, Abbey is both a team player and a natural leader. She began her career as a freelance treasure hunter working under the radar and outside the law. Abbey still finds herself trying to elude the many villainous characters she has crossed and outwitted in her pre-Danger Girl days. After bumping into the Danger Girls during one of her adventure-filled hunts, Abbey shepherded the ladies to victory in their first battle against the menacing Hammer Empire. Soon after, Abbey became a full-fledged member of this international covert-operations unit. She replaced Natalia Kassle as DG's field-commander.

Sydney Savage

Sydney is a sassy and vivacious Danger Girl who fittingly originates from the picturesque continent of Australia. Though often reprimanded for her wild and unorthodox ways, Sydney more often than not justifies her lawless techniques. More than any of the other Danger Girls, Sydney takes frequent advantage of her good looks, deploying her curvaceous form to distract and defeat the ladies' primarily-male nemeses. Sydney seems to have a love–hate relationship with Johnny Barracuda, who often makes sexualized passes at her which she either coyly accepts or acidicly rebuffs. Sydney also appears to have a crush on Batman/Bruce Wayne in the Batman/Danger Girl crossover.

Deuce

He is a former British Secret Service Agent who was lured away from retirement when invited to fashion and oversee the world's first all-female espionage network, a secret organization that would adopt the code name Danger Girl. His true name was never revealed throughout the series, but speculation always led the reader to believe he is James Bond, as he makes a strong resemblance to Sean Connery's incarnation of the cult-classic secret agent.

Silicon Valerie

Valerie is a teenager who graduated top of her class at Oxford, years before she could even obtain a valid driver's license. Though Valerie could have easily secured a safe and lucrative career in the field of communications technology, her love of danger led to a chance encounter with Deuce, who welcomed her into his employ as a Danger Girl-in-training. Valerie monitors the Danger Girls' status during their missions, but she secretly desires to go on such a mission herself. Her name is a play on Silicon Valley.

Johnny Barracuda

Johnny is a handsome CIA agent with a large ego and a sex drive to match. He collaborates with the Danger Girls on various missions; they seem to enjoy taking sexual potshots at each other. He has a love/hate relationship with Sydney Savage.

Secret Agent Zero

Agent Zero is a master of disguise and spy of unknown origin, besides being the only Hammer agent who has ever defected and lived to tell about it. No one knows what he looks like beneath his mysterious mask, but he appears to have a connection with Abbey Chase. He could possibly be her missing-and-presumed-dead father; he does keep a photo of Abbey, taken during her childhood, with him. It is also thought that he is originally Diabolik himself, but any reference to his own personal past was never mentioned.

Sonya Savage

Sonya is the sister of Sydney Savage, who is one of the original members of Danger Girl. Sonya received her training from the Australian secret agency ASIS. She is secretly in the employ of Veronica Fox, who does not trust the Danger Girl team to retrieve the artifact that she desires. Sonya works alongside the team, but at the end of the mission decides to stay on as a third team member. Sonya is in peak physical condition and is unparalleled in her ability with a bow and arrow. She sometimes employs trick arrows (much as those with transponders or explosive on them).

Natalia Kassle

A sultry Russian, Natalia was chosen to join the Danger Girl organization for her phenomenal combat and espionage talents, honed in the KGB, and also for her more obvious outstanding attributes. Natalia was the team's original field-commander, but she also turned out to be a double agent, secretly working for the neo-Nazi Hammer Empire. She nearly led the Danger Girls to their deaths, but was ultimately exposed and defeated. Currently she has rejoined the Danger Girls.

Villains

Major Maxim

Maxim is the monstrous mastermind and muscle behind the Hammer Empire's military forces. Once but a wounded soldier of those very forces, Maxim became an unwilling volunteer to Doctor Kharnov Von Kripplor's Übermensch (Super-Soldier) program. The only "success" of the strange procedure, Maxim soon became dependent on the mysterious blue Übermensch fluid that supplies and sustains his massive size and strength. He has never been shown without his mask, and his real name remains unknown.

Assassin X

A mysterious blind ninja who works for the Hammer Empire, he appears to have a long and complicated history with Secret Agent Zero.

Kid Dynamo

Dynamo is a villainous dwarf who has a giant grudge against Johnny Barracuda. His weapon of choice is a pair of extendable golden arms. In one appearance, Dynamo dressed himself as a miniature Adolf Hitler.

Mr. Giggles

A cadaverous man with an artificial larynx and a hand replaced with a steel claw, he acts as a straight man for Kid Dynamo.

Doctor Kharnov Von Kripplor

A scientist bent on making insane experiments for the Hammer, he is also the creator of Übermensch Serum X. Half of his face has been heavily stitched up; it seems to be either mutating, rotting or both.

The Peach

An illegal arms dealer who has ties to the Hammer Empire.

Donavin Conrad

Donavin is a cartoonish rogue who lost his right eye to Abbey Chase. Although he appears to be the stereotypical aristocratic villain, Conrad's image is largely an elaborate charade. He also wears a toupée. Donavin later lost a hand to the Joker when the Danger Girls joined forces with Batman.

Video game

A video game of the same name was developed by n-Space and published by THQ. It was released for the Sony PlayStation in 2000. It is loosely based on the first series which consisted of seven comic issues, but there have been many significant changes from the original storyline, such as Abbey Chase being a veteran Danger Girl operative and Natalia Kassle working for The Hammer from the very beginning of the adventure, along with a new member of the team that was never present in the comic books was introduced, named "JC".

Film adaptation

In April 2010, Hitman: Agent 47 producer Adrian Askarieh was interested in developing a film based on the comic with Todd Lincoln as director.

In November 2017, Constantin Film acquired the rights to develop Danger Girl as both a film and potential TV series, in partnership with Askarieh's Prime Universe Films and Jeremy Bolt's Bolt Pictures.

In February 2018, Umair Aleem was hired as the film's writer, with creators J. Scott Campbell and Andy Hartnell serving as executive producers alongside Constantin Film's Martin Moszkowicz.
