Beth Kane
Elizabeth Kane is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. Beginning as a supervillain and eventually evolving into a superhero, she was created by Greg Rucka and J. H. Williams III and first appeared in August 2009 in Detective Comics.
Her relationship with her twin sister Kate Kane defines much of Batwoman's emotional life. During The New 52, it is established that Kate and Beth are cousins of Bruce Wayne, the alter-ego of the superhero Batman, through his mother Martha Wayne (née Kane).
Her origin story involves getting kidnapped by terrorists alongside her mother, Gabi Kane, and Kate, and because she wasn't rescued by their father Jacob she was presumed dead. However, she was in fact alive, and eventually became the leader of the Religion of Crime, before becoming an antagonist to her sister, who had begun her career as Batwoman.
After being once again presumed dead following her fall from a plane, she was resurrected by the Department of Extranormal Operations (D.E.O.) and decided to redeem herself after getting psychological help, becoming an ally to her sister from that point on. She has used villainous identities such as Alice and the Mother of War and the heroic alias Red Alice through her history.
Alice appears in the Arrowverse TV series Batwoman as part of the main cast, portrayed by Rachel Skarsten.
Alice was created by Greg Rucka and J. H. Williams III, making her first appearance in Detective Comics #854 (August 2009), having an antagonistic role in Batwoman: Elegy as a whole.
After the DC Universe was reset during The New 52, Beth make cameo roles in story arcs such as Batwoman: Hydrology and Batwoman: Webs, before having a main role in Batwoman: The Unknowns, this time under the heroic identity of Red Alice, appearing in nearly all issues. Much later, she had a villainous role in the story arc Batwoman: Fall of the House of Kane.
Alice's origin is told in flashback. Elizabeth "Beth" Kane is the identical twin sister of Katherine "Kate" Kane, and was older than Kate by two minutes. She is the daughter of Jacob Kane and his wife Gabrielle Kane, both career soldiers in the U.S. Army. The Kanes are Jewish, and Jacob Kane inherited vast wealth along with his other siblings. Bette Kane (the superheroine known as Flamebird, and later Hawkfire) is a cousin, and Bruce Wayne's mother Martha Kane Wayne was Jacob's sister.
