Plastique (Bette Sans Souci) is a supervillain appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. She is an enemy of Firestorm and both an enemy and love interest of Captain Atom. Plastique first appeared in the series The Fury of Firestorm as a terrorist attempting to coerce the separation of Quebec from the rest of Canada. She subsequently makes several appearances during Gerry Conway's tenure as writer of that series. Plastique also appears in Captain Atom as an adversary, later love interest, of the titular hero. In her first appearance, Plastique attempts to bomb the New York News Express using a set of bombs attached to her costume. However, Firestorm disarms her by vaporizing her clothing, leaving her naked and humiliated in public while Firestorm takes the bombs to explode in a safer area. Later, via genetic engineering, she gains the power to project explosive force outward from her body. Her last major public operation as a terrorist is depicted in her first Captain Atom appearance, wherein she attempts to destroy the Canadian Parliament Building in Ottawa and the Statue of Liberty in New York City, as well as assassinate the President of the United States and the Canadian Prime Minister. Her plans were thwarted, and Plastique is captured by Captain Atom.
