Calendar Girl is a minor villian in The New Batman Adventures. She appears in the episode, "Mean Seasons".
Biography
Paige Monroe is a former model and actress who's fame dwindled as she got older. Monroe's transformation into a villain and one of Batman's colorful opponents was out of vanity. After her modeling and acting career dried up and she vanished from public view, she could not find work. It was never clearly discussed what she did in the years after professional career ended. It can only be assumed that she spent that time plotting revenge, gathering resources and fostering a deep seated psychotic obsession with getting revenge on those people and companies/brand names who had turned their back on her when she turned 30.
Calendar Girl and her model henchmen
She eventually re-emerged as Calendar Girl and proceeded to attack each of her former employers — Gotham Motors and Donna Days Fashion on the anniversary of her contract expiration. Each contract expired during a different season and she dressed in a themed costume for each occasion, with her attacks having a similar theme. Additionally, she hired and/or used attractive male henchmen. Calendar Girl was based out of an old nightclub she owned called Faces. Her plans for revenge were thwarted by Batman and his team. She is unmasked revealing that she was still beautiful. Batman points out that all she can see are her flaws.
Abilities
She mainly uses explosive weapons that look like holiday ornaments such as easter eggs and candy corn earrings. She also seems trained in physical combat seeing as that she was almost able to defeat batman in battle using a scythe.
She also has three henchmen that do her bidding.
