History

  Using the alias Cameron Van Cleer, Drury Walker ran a protection racket, whereby the criminal element of Gotham City handed over good money so that he would protect them from the attention of the police and the Batman. To that end he used the alias Killer Moth, but he was soon apprehended by Barbara Gordon on her first outing as Batgirl. He then tried numerous criminal schemes, but was always foiled by one of Gotham's protectors. Following a deal with the devil Neron, Killer Moth was transformed into Charaxes, a huge insect-like creature which has faced Robin and Starfire, among others. His mind is barely human now, and he has developed some disgusting insect tendencies, making him a brutally dangerous foe.
