Shane McKillen[1] is a mercenary who used to work for Catherine Hamilton-Kane.
Biography[]
Early life[]
At some point in his life, Shane McKillen started to operate as a mercenary, presumably working often and making himself noticed by Hamilton Dynamics. He began to be hired personally by its CEO, Catherine Hamilton-Kane, in order to do some dirty work for her.[2]
Retrieving Alice's butterfly knife[]
After Kate Kane contacted Sophie Moore to give her Alice's butterfly knife she previously stole her to have it DNA tested and demonstrate the villainess was in fact her missing sister Beth, in order to cover the fact she faked the girl's death fifteen years prior, Catherine sent McKillen and a group of thugs led by him to attack Kate and Sophie out of the Crows Security headquarters dressed as member of Wonderland gang and retrieve it.
Catherine orders Shane to destroy Alice's butterfly knife.
McKillen and his men are successful and he later had an encounter with Catherine in a park to give her the butterfly Kife, receiving from the woman the order to destroy it.[3]
It's unclear if Shane McKillen also take some part in Alice's assassination attempt when the transfer truck she was being transported to Arkham Asylum was bombed by Hamilton Dynamics while on Loeb Bridge.[3][4]
Infiltrating the Wonderland gang's hideout[]

After Alice blackmailed Catherine telling her to give her a top-secret weapon from her defense company by 10 pm the next night or Jacob Kane would know how she convinced him that his daughter was dead all those years ago, Catherine sent a handful of men led by Shane McKillen into one of Alice's lairs; however the Wonderland gang easily capture them and, after having bound all of them to some chairs, the villainess started to do the counting in order to choose who she would torture first. Despite her counting as the "winner" another mercenary, eventually Alice's choice was to torture McKillen instead. A few hours later, McKillen met with Catherine in a parking garage and showed her his severed pinkie, which was a message Alice intended to send her. In anger, McKillen told Catherine that she would have to do it herself and left.[2]
Abilities[]
- Peak of human physical condition: As a mercenary directly under the Hamilton Dynamics' CEO, McKillen is likely in top physical condition, given the industry is one of the most important defense contractor companies of the United States.[3]
- Master hand-to-hand combatant/Martial artist: McKillen is a highly capable hand-to-hand combatant. He was able to hold his own against both the extremely seasoned Kate Kane and Sophie Moore at the same time while posing as a member of the Wonderland gang.[3]
- Expert marksman: McKillen is quite skilled in the use of firearms.[2]
