Heroes & Villains The DC Animated Universe - Paper Cut-Out Portraits and Profiles

Robert Vance

Software maven Robert Vance was a genius programmer who created the hugely successful and cutting edge technology firm Vance Industries.  In his later years, Vance was diagnosed with an incurable neurological disease.  This prompted him to digitize his cerebral infrastructure to create an artificial intelligence based on his knowledge, attitudes and business acumen.  This A.I. program was meant to serve as a guiding force in the continued running of Vance Industries.  Following Vance’s death, however, his son and the board of directors chose to disable the program and run the company on their own.

Many years later, Vance’s son passed away and controlling shares of the company were inherited by his Vance’s grandson, Bobby Vance.  Bobby ended up turning the A.I. program back own seeking advice on how to run the company.  

Although the program initially seemed benevolent, it was soon revealed to possess nefarious intentions.  Based entirely on the engrams of Robert Vance, the program could not endure being an incorporeal entity and it put in motion a plan to have its consciousness implanted into Bobby (a process that would overwrite ad effectively murder Bobby).   

The programs exploration of how it could control computer based devices and mechanisms through Neo Gotham ultimately prompted an investigation by Batman that led the Tomorrow Knight to Vance Industries.  The program found that it could infiltrate and fully control Batman’s bionic suit and Terry would have been killed had Bruce not activated an emergency shut-down procedure.  

Ultimately Batman discovered the program was vulnerable to high burst electromagnetism and he was able to save Bobby’s life by administering an electromagnetic pulse that had the effect of completely deleting the artificial intelligence.  

Actor Stacy Keach provided the voice for Robert Vance as well as the Vance artificial intelligence program.  The villainous A.I. featured in the fourth episode of the second season of Batman Beyond, ‘Lost Soul.’

happy friday to stacy keach only

I’m curious as to your thoughts on the actor Stacy Keach, if you think he is daddy material?

I've been into him for the last 5 years or so. I'm surprised I have so little of him.

Well… that's going to change.

On A Side Note: His brother James Keach isn't bad to look at either.

The Phantasm 

Based on the likeness of the grim reaper, The Phantasm was a guise taken on by Andrea Beaumont as part of her campaign to avenge her murdered father.  Andrea was a skilled athlete and martial artist who had trained rigorously to hone herself into a fierce combatant.  Her abilities were augmented by the weapons of the Phantasm suit.  

The skull-like mask filtered smoke, enable-night vision and had a voice synthesizer that altered Andrea's voice so to sound like that of her father.  One gauntlet could exude a thick, smokey fog that obscured her movements and facilitated quick escapes.  While the other gauntlet ended in a large, sickle-like blade.  

It was The Valestra crime family who had murdered Andrea’s father.  As the Phantasm, she succeeded in taking out Salvador Valestra's two top lieutenants.  Valestra himself was killed by The Joker and both The Joker and Andrea herself appeared to perish in an explosive final confrontation.  

Andrea survived and left Gotham for locations unknown.  She would continue on as The Phantasm, and would later act as a mercenary in the employ of Amanda Waller.

Actress Dana Delany provided the voice for Andrea, with actor Stacy Keach providing her altered voice as The Phantasm.  The character first appeared in the animated feature, ‘Batman: The Mask of The Phantasm.’
