15 DEADLIEST Comic Book Assassins
3. Lady Shiva
Lady Shiva may very be the greatest martial artist in the world of DC Comics. Although Batman has defeated her a handful of times she usually comes out on top. Considering she never uses any form of weaponry and Batman is always armed with a bajillion gizmos makes this feat even more daunting.
Shiva is able to read the body language of anyone in her proximity and so, can anticipate their every action. Because of this, she knows what her opponent is going to before they do. Through pure willpower, she can heal from almost any injury, become immune to pain, and even control her bleeding rate.
Because she has a reputation as the world's greatest fighter, she is constantly attacked by combatants trying to make a name for themselves. But Shiva only fights for one reason; to kill. If someone engages with her in combat, it becomes a deathmatch and she will not rest until her opponent is deceased.
Even though she has mastered every martial art known to man, her primary fighting style is Leopard. With this technique, she can perform the Leopard Blow, which will kill her opponent with a single strike.
