### Legion of Bats!

In "Boss Bitches" Livewire materializes in front of Ivy in order to take part in Ivy's recruitment drive for the Legion of Doom. Ivy is pleased to see her, hugging Livewire and telling her how much she missed her as a tear comes to her eye. When Livewire asks when will they start, Ivy points out the various paperwork to fill in, with Frank chiming in from the intercom for Livewire to stop by his desk to get the paperwork.

In "BatHarl" Livewire volunteers to be part of a Legion of Doom mission organized by Ivy to intercept Black Mask and Lady Marabunta's armored transport from reaching Blackgate Penitentiary. Nightfall then teleports the task force to the Penitentiary's entrance, just in time for them to intercept the transport. Livewire is then involved in a fight with a disguised Harley Quinn who hits her with a strong kick.

In "Where Do We Go From Here?" Livewire comments that Ivy missed a rat, in reference to Harley's perceived duplicity, right before she fires lightning at Harley in revenge for their earlier fight, despite being warned not to by Batgirl, Nightfall and Ivy. Ivy then begins to mourn Harley, thinking that she has been incinerated by the lightning before it is revealed that Nightfall teleported Harley away just in the nick of time. Livewire then begins to conjure up another storm of lightning, muttering that it is vengeance for breaking into her girlfriend's home.

## Trivia

* Like Harley, Livewire didn't originate from the comics. Livewire made her first appearance in *Superman: The Animated Series* in her premiere episode "Livewire". Known as Leslie Willis in her former life, Leslie was a radio host. Described as a shock jock by many, she spent most of her time on the air degrading Superman and his actions. Following an accident with a concert during a storm, Leslie is struck by lightning. Gaining her new powers and take on her title as Livewire. Going to drain the power out of the city, she is stopped by Superman. She would reappear in several other animated properties as well as begin making her own comic appearances. She would often flip back and forth between being a Superman centric villain to fighting other heroes like Batgirl.
* Rather than following her roots with her design, the show takes inspiration from her more modern appearances. Specifically that which can be seen in a run of Batgirl comics. See this cover for example. While her original design was a simple leotard with a lighting bolt down the middle, her modern design takes on more punk inspiration. Likely to tie in with her radio host origins.
* As seen in "The First Person to Come Back From a Business Conference Without Chlamydia" her username on *Waynestagram* (the show's parody of *Instagram*) is **Nmbr1ElectricBitch**.
* Throughout the Eat Bang Kill Tour run Livewire would refer to a “Girl’s Night Out” when talking to Harley and Ivy. This is a reference to an episode of The New Batman Adventures which featured Livewire teaming up with Harley and Ivy.
