Argent is a DC Comics fictional superhero. She first appeared in the second series of the Teen Titans comics in issue #1. She remained a regular member of that team for a long time, up until the events of Graduation Day when the Titans were disbanded by Nightwing.

Toni Monetti is the daughter of a former U.S. Senator from New Jersey. Around the time she turned sixteen, Toni's skin gains a silver sheen to it. At a pool party for her sixteenth birthday, Toni is mysteriously teleported away. Toni, along with a few other teens, learn that they are half-alien, and their mothers were impregnated by an alien race called the H'San Natall years ago. The teens are part of a sleeper agent program created by the H'San Natall to defeat the super-powered beings already on Earth. The group of teens stay together, and with the funding of Loren Jupiter, became the newest incarnation of the Teen Titans. Toni’s ability to control bursts of silver plasma energy earns her the codename, Argent.

At first, Toni is not a very serious adventurer. However, after fellow teammate Joto apparently dies, Argent takes it particularly hard. She vows to become a better hero. It was then that Mr. Jupiter disbands the team, and Argent seeks training advice from Robin. She accompanies him on a mission to stop drug runners, but when she found out her father was involved, she decides to keep the information secret.

When the Teen Titans reform, Argent was instrumental in initiating a membership drive. The team takes on new members Fringe and Captain Marvel Jr. (also known as CM3). A possible romance of Argent with CM3 was explored, but after a particularly horrible date (CM3 was unable to cover the bill), it was abandoned.

Argent has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
