The Angler was a crime lord who tried to defeat Wonder Woman.

After having some initial success with his criminal gang, and his penchant for working out new angles for criminal activity, the Angler set out upon a scheme to trick Wonder Woman into revealing her secret identity, under the mistaken assumption that she actually had one, as did most other super-heroes. Suspecting a trap, Wonder Woman pretended to go along with the ruse, until she could turn the tables on the Angler and his gang. He was arrested and convicted of racketeering charges and given a stiff prison sentence.

  • This version of Angler, including all history and corresponding appearances, was erased from existence following the collapse of the original Multiverse in the 1985–86 Crisis on Infinite Earths event and later restored following the rebirth of the infinite Multiverse during the Dark Crisis of 2022-2023. Even though other versions of the character may have appeared, this information does not apply to those versions.
