Madame Rouge was a member of the Brotherhood of Evil, enemies of the Doom Patrol. She was originally a French stage actress. After an automobile accident she developed a dual good/evil split personality. At this point, she attracted the notice of the Brain and his associate, Monsieur Mallah. With Mallah's help, the Brain performed surgery on De Mille that was, from his perspective, successful, sublimating her good personality and allowing her evil personality to remain dominant. At first, Madame Rouge was simply a master of disguise; subsequent surgery by the Brain eventually gave her a full shapeshifting power. After some years of regular forays against the Doom Patrol, the Brotherhood came up against the Teen Titans, and Madame Rouge was killed by Changeling.
