History[]
Earth 1956[]
In 1977, a man gets a young girl to get into his car with evil intentions in mind.
Although she was rescued by the Wonder Twins, it was likely he had planned to rape and kill her.[3]
In 1978, when Wonder Woman was travelling back to Paradise Island in her invisible jet, she encountered The Shark at sea, who attempted to have her mate with him.
She wasn't going to let him do it, however, he forcefully attempts to rape her. He does this by binding her bracelets together. Still, the Amazon Princess managed to overpower him.
After defeating him, she used her Lasso of Truth, her very own personal magic lasso; to force him to return to his natural shark-state, and never evolve into his humanoid form again.[4]
New Earth[]
On a sunny Sunday in Cabrini–Green, Chicago; Damita Waller was walking home from church, when she was confronted by the Candyman in an alley. He grabbed her, and then he raped her for about fifteen minutes while she screamed for help, but no one came.
The people that could hear her screams simply shut their windows so as to muffle the noise. After he was done with her, he killed her.[6]
In the comics[]
In the comics, rape is a subject that is referenced a number of times, whereas on the Super Friends, due to censorship, it's mostly subtle references, in the comics it is directly mentioned. Batman was raped by Talia, and that's how his son Damian was born. Doctor Light was also a rapist, and he raped Sue Dibney, Elongated Man's wife.
The Joker has also raped several people. He may or may not have raped Barbara Gordon in The Killing Joke, since he took naked pictures of her and there was blood around her genitals. In Batman Cacophony, he says that he wants to “defile Batman’s corpse sexually”, which is necrophilia.
