- —Widowmaker
Amélie Lacroix (née Guillard), also known as Widowmaker, is an antagonist from the Overwatch series. She appeared in the 106th episode of Death Battle, Black Widow VS Widowmaker, where she fought against Black Widow from Marvel Comics.
History
Amélie Lacroix grew up in France, becoming a renowned ballerina and wife to Gérard Lacroix, an ally to Overwatch and spearhead against the Talon terrorist organization. Talon tried many times to kill Gérard, but were unsuccessful, which is why they then resorted to kidnapping Amélie. Overwatch successfully rescued her, but to the horror of many, she killed her husband no less than two weeks later. It turned out Talon had subjected Amélie to a brainwashing program which tampered with her memories and suppressed her personality until she was a shadow of who she used to be. Returning to Talon, she would undergo further procedures, which turned her skin blue, her blood cold, and the once elegant dancer into a master assassin. Amélie was gone, and the unfeeling and merciless "Widowmaker" was born.
