Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A DC Comics series from 2004 to 2009 created by writer Marc Andreyko artist Jesus Saiz and tying into the Identity Crisis crossover event. Kate Spencer is a Los Angeles Federal Prosecutor by day, but after the supervillain Copperhead gets a lesser sentence and escapes, killing his guards she takes equipment from an evidence locker and blows Copperhead's brains out, leaving a message on the wall with the name "Manhunter".Kate is the eighth DC character to bear the name Manhunter, but at first is unconnected to the previous holders of the title beyond bearing the weapon of Mark Shaw.After the cancellation of her own book, Kate appeared in Birds of Prey, Streets of Gotham and more recently Justice Society of America. She also appeared as her civilian identity in the Green Arrow TV show Arrow (played by Chelah Horsdal), where she was Starling City's District Attorney.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Not to be confused with the Martian Manhunter, or with the Guardians of the Universe's first failed attempt at a Space Police.

Affirmative Action Legacy: Though she is unconnected to the previous Manhunters, Kate is the first woman to bear the title, and the Distant Finale shows that her son Ramsey, who is gay, will take the title as well. The same storyline also introduced a new version of Jade, who was an adopted Asian-American teen.

Amoral Attorney: Copperhead's lawyer in the first story arc is portrayed as one, convincing the jury that Copperhead murdering and cannibalizing 48 people isnt his fault, but the fault of his unstable mutation. Kate herself is forced to become one as part of her deal with Mr Bones, defending Dr Psycho against charges for his part of the Battle Of Metropolis where he mind-controlled a group of civilians to brutally murder a group of uncooperative supervillains.
