[edit] History
Merlyn was a supervillain whose archery skills rivaled that of Green Arrow. He used an assortment of trick arrows much like that of his Justice League counterpart. Merlyn became a member of Grodd's Legion of Doom. At meetings, Merlyn was given a seat between fellow villains, Lady Lunar and the Shark. Later, Lex Luthor took control of the Legion, Merlyn was among those who showed little faith. When Grodd was freed from inprisonment by Tala, Merlyn sided with him against Luthor. Merlyn, Bloodsport, The Key, and other villains fought in the Legion headquarters against Luthor and his sympathizers. During the battle, Merlyn, was presumably killed in combat - he was not among those who made the final stand.
[edit] Background Information
The depicted subject bears the likeness of Merlyn from the DC Comics; however, the DCAU character was never named on-screen, or otherwise. The title of this article is conjecture based on the character's likeness. Merlyn was conceived by Dick Dillin and Neal Adams as a counterpart to Green Arrow for the third comics incarnation of the Secret Society ("The Society") in Justice League of America #94. He would later become a recurring rogue for Green Arrow himself.
