Shrike, real name Vanessa Kingsbury, was a member of Cadre.

Shrike was an escaped mental patient who became a member of the Cadre and, as such, an enemy of the Justice League of America. During her time with the team, she acted as the Overmaster's most trusted aide.[1] Following her arrest, she was recruited into the Suicide Squad, but died on her first mission. She was later seen resurrected as a member of the Black Lantern Corps.[2]
