Copperhead has been confirmed as a Batman: Arkham Origins villain, Warner Bros. announced during a San Diego Comic-Con panel today. The assassin is loosely based on DC's New 52 re-imagination of the snake-suit wearing villain -- rather than the comics' anthropomorphic serpent design, WB made her human again, as the team wanted to add more women to the roster.
Copperhead was shown escaping interrogation and attacking Batman using poisoned claws. The developers took three motion-capture performers, including a martial artist and Cirque du Soleil performer, to create the scene. DC writer Geoff Johns is so pleased with the new Copperhead that DC will be using it introducing her to the comics.
IGN will have more on Arkham Origins and Copperhead soon, and don't miss our SDCC Live show.
