Pity Roxy never really jumped over to the comics as much as like Condiment King or something. She had a cameo in Steph Brown Batgirl book but then disappeared afterwards. Thought she was in an issue of Flash but no just someone utilizing her gimmick (& being less horny) named Spitfire.
I agree. Roxy would fit in great with the comic book world of the Batman family. Maybe she's not grim and gritty enough for the current Batman books, but she'd certainly not seem out of place in Taylor et al.'s Nightwing series or even Williamson et al.'s Robin.

Year of the Bat - Number 29
Welcome to Year of the Bat! In honor of Kevin Conroy, Arleen Sorkin, and Richard Moll, I’m counting down my Top 31 Favorite Episodes of “Batman: The Animated Series” throughout this January. EPISODE QUOTE: “The final stunt IS the best.” Number 29 is…The Ultimate Thrill.
Tumblr media
This is widely regarded as the most…um… “suggestive” episode in “Batman: The Animated Series.” While the show was not above a few innuendos and implications here and there, they were usually pretty subtle. This episode, rather infamously, basically turns any undertones into overtones: subtlety is not part of the game. You can decide if that specific element is a good or a bad thing, but it certainly makes it memorable. Regardless, that’s NOT the real reason I love this story. “The Ultimate Thrill” focuses on the exploits of a character named Roxy Rocket: an original villainess created for the DCAU. She actually got her start in some spin-off comics for the franchise; the creators enjoyed the concept of the character so much, they finally gave her an animated outing with this story. The basic plot is pretty simple: Roxy teams-up with the Penguin, stealing jewelry for him while he acts as the fence, paying her for her work and then pawning off the baubles to the highest bidder. Penguin gets fed up with Roxy’s overzealous thrillseeking, however, and – out of fear she may cause trouble for his business at the Iceberg Lounge – tries to have her assassinated. Batman must now try to capture Roxy, before Penguin’s minions get to her first. It's the two villains who make this story so memorable. In Penguin’s case, this is the only really major story he had in the New Batman Adventures era of the show. He popped up frequently throughout season four, but it was usually as a cameo or just a minor supporting role. In this story, he’s the main villain (not the main ANTAGONIST, but the main VILLAIN; there’s a difference), and I really like the way he’s used here. By this point in the series, Oswald Cobblepot had seemingly reformed and was running a prestigious nightclub called the Iceberg Lounge…but was secretly still a villain, doing his dirty deeds out the back window. It was great to see that character concept in full action here.
Roxy, however, is the one who truly makes this story. Her origins are only described, not shown, but setup for the character is really great: once upon a time, Roxy was a movie stuntperson, and an aspiring actress. However, her stunts became increasingly dangerous, to the point where no one wanted to hire her for fear of either herself or others being hurt in the process. Roxy thus turned to a life of crime, figuring that nothing could be more thrilling than the life of an outlaw. We’ve had other villains who enjoyed the thrill of the chase, so to speak – Catwoman is a good example, for instance – but none quite so…intensely as Roxy Rocket. To say that Roxy is an adrenaline junkie is putting it far too mildly. It’s made pretty darn obvious that she basically “gets off” on thrills; that’s where so much of the more suggestive side of the story comes from.
Even ignoring that specific angle, though, it’s just interesting to see HOW MUCH of a thrillseeker Roxy is. She will do literally ANYTHING, it often seems, just to get some excitement. From very simple things, like mock-gambling, to outright taking pleasure out of the thought of her own possible demise, it seems like she’ll try just about whatever, short of murder, simply for the sake of a little excitement. On that note, yeah, Roxy’s also not really depicted as outright EVIL, but simply a thrillseeking lunatic: in both this episode and her comic appearances from the DCAU, she’s consistently depicted as being much less violent and cruel compared to a lot of other baddies. There are even hints of a sort of self-deluding naivete to Roxy: she describes herself out loud as “the heroine of the story,” and seems legitimately shocked when other characters turn against her. When Penguin tries to kill her, she’s absolutely flabbergasted. When Batman snaps the cuffs on her at one point, she’s genuinely confused why. I love the different layers of this character, and I really wish we could have seen more of her…but you can certainly say that her single appearance (barring a Superman crossover) was a banger. Did I mean it “that way” when I said “banger”? Maybe, maybe not. With Roxy Rocket, neither would be surprising. Ha Ha.

Tomorrow we move on to Number 28! Hint: “Sometimes there are no happy endings.”

Batman: The Animated Series - Paper Cut-Out Portraits and Profiles
Roxy Rocket
Roxanne ‘Roxy Rocket’ Sutton was formerly a stunt double for a Hollywood actress. She adored danger and constantly pushed the envelope with stunts that were progressively more thrilling and perilous. She quickly garnered a notorious reputation and her expensive exploits ultimately drove her out of show business.
Out of work but still hungering for thrills, Sutton turned to life of crime. Utilizing a flying rocket-sled of her own design, Roxy stole high end jewelry, art and antiquities. She fenced these items through The Penguin. Unlike other villains in Gotham City, Roxy's crimes were fairly benign. She was always the only one being put at risk. And Batman took similar risks in his efforts to catch Roxy in midair chases, leading Roxy to believe Batman was a kindred spirit who understood the addictive pleasure of intense thrill-seeking.
Roxy’s compulsion to attract Batman’s attention greatly troubled The Penguin, who feared that he would be implicated in her crimes.  He sent his henchmen, Jay, Lark and Raven to take out Roxy yet they proved no match for the clever thrill-seeker and Roxy got away.
Batman eventually captured Roxy and she was somewhat heartbroken that he was more interested in ensuring her safety rather than obtaining the ultimate rush.  Roxy was handed over to the authorities, but it would not be too long before she would return in her never-ended quest for danger and excitement.
Actress Charity James provided the voice for Roxy Rocket, with the thrill-seeker first appearing in the fourteenth episode of the first season of The New Batman Adventures, ‘The Ultimate Thrill.’
