Damien Darhk
Damien Darhk is an elusive and dangerous criminal mastermind and enemy of the Teen Titans. He makes his first appearance in Titans #1 (March 1999). Claiming to be a major player in the American underworld and implying he has an army at his disposal, Darhk is shown to be well-established and well-connected and has remained untouchable by the FBI and the CIA.
He appears to have some connection to the crime syndicate H.I.V.E. and has access to unique high-tech equipment unknown to any organization. Darhk uses trickery and forgotten science to make his followers and the public believe he has magical powers, but is later proven to be a fraud.
Damien Darhk in other media
Damien Darkh appears as a character summon in Scribblenauts Unmasked: A DC Comics Adventure.
Damien Darhk appears in media set in the Arrowverse, portrayed by Neal McDonough.
Introduced in Arrow, this version is a ruthless yet honorable friend-turned-rival of Ra's al Ghul and a renegade member of the League of Assassins who left after being denied leadership and formed H.I.V.E. Additionally, he acquired a magical artifact called the Khushu Idol, which grants telekinesis and the ability to drain life energy through physical contact. After Anarky kills his wife and destroys the "Ark" in which he and H.I.V.E. planned to survive the nuclear holocaust they wanted to cause, Darkh becomes nihilistic and maintains his attempt to destroy the world until Queen, his team, Mr. Terrific, and the Calculator disable all but one of H.I.V.E.'s nuclear bombs and rally Star City's citizens against him, with the outpouring of hope negating Darkh's powers.
