Read more about The Phantasm at: Wikipedia Official Site: Warner Bros. Andrea Beaumont, also known as The Phantasm, is a fictional character in the DC animated universe. Conceived by Alan Burnett and Paul Dini, she first appeared in the 1993 animated film Batman: Mask of the Phantasm as the ex-fiancé of Bruce Wayne/Batman and one of the film's primary antagonists. The Phantasm has made occasional cameo appearance in various Batman titles, often as a freelance assassin. The dual animated character in Mask of the Phantasm was voiced by Dana Delany as Andrea and by Stacy Keach as the Phantasm. Andrea is based loosely on a combination of Judson Caspian (the Reaper) and his daughter Rachel, characters from the Batman: Year Two comic book mini-series. The Phantasm's costume was designed by Bruce Timm as per Alan Burnett's initial description of a Grim Reaper-esque character. Burnett wanted the villain to be reminiscent of the Ghost of Christmas Future, as mentioned in the film by the Joker. Timm went through approximately 20 different character designs for the Phantasm before creating a version that would evolve into the final design. Described by Timm as resembling a "tall, gaunt Death character", The character's left glove houses a chemically-based smoke-generating device, which the Phantasm uses to conceal herself in a shroud of fog or to blind enemies.
