Queen Clea is a villain who battled Wonder Woman and has led Villainy Inc.
[edit] Character History
As Queen of Venturia, a crumbling Atlantean outpost, Queen Clea enslaved the men of her realm and amused herslf by putting many to death in gladitorial combat. But what she really wanted was Aurania, Venturia's flourishing sister city and the first step towards domination over the entire lost continent of Atlantis. Clea stole the fabled trident of Poseidon to make herself virtually unstoppable.
On the surface, she battled against Wonder Woman and was defeated. She teamed with the original Villainy Inc. during the 1940s, and then assembled a new version of the team in recent years. Both versions of the team were defeated by Wonder Woman (including one battle when Clea's own daughter, Ptra, helped defeat her mother).
In her last battle against Wonder Woman in Skartaris, Clea was de-evolved and lost, not to be seen since.
[edit] Powers and Abilities
Queen Clea is a biologically typical Atlantean with the ability to breathe both above and below the surface of water, super-human strength, speed, agility, stamina, and keen eyesight adapted to the pressures and darkness of the ocean depths.
She also wielded the mystical trident belonging to Poseidon, the Greek god of the oceans.
