Hellcat (real name Patricia "Trish" Walker) is the deuteragonist from the Netflix TV series Jessica Jones, a minor character in Luke Cage, and a supporting character in The Defenders, which are part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Trish Walker is a former child star and Teen Choice Award Winner from the television series It's Patsy and is the best friend/adoptive sister of Jessica Jones. Unknown events have made Walker paranoid enough to turn her house into a fortress complete with a safe room, and 24 hour surveillance, and pick up Krav Maga.

She was portrayed by Rachel Taylor, who also portrayed Maggie Madsen in Transformers. Catherine Blades and Audrey Grace Marshall portrayed the character younger.

History[]

Jessica Jones[]

Flashbacks show that Trish is a former child actress, whose abusive mother adopted a newly orphaned Jessica in order to get free publicity. Although their relationship has a rocky start, they eventually become closer after Jessica uses her powers to force Dorothy to leave them alone. Unlike Jessica, Trish is excited that her friend has developed superpowers, and constantly encourages her to take up superheroics, to the point that she even creates her a costume.

Currently, Trish is a radio talk show host and has her own show, "Trish Talk". During the series she serves as Jessica's confidant and assists her in her search after Kilgrave. Unfortunately, her actions cause her to be targeted by him, and he brainwashes a police officer, Will Simpson, to kill her. Luckily, his plan is foiled by Jessica. The attack leaves her in shock, to the point where she almost shoots Will when he comes back to apologize for his actions while he was under Kilgrave's control. Luckily, she does not, and they begin a romantic relationship. Their relationship comes under strain, however, when their conflicting methods about how to deal with Kilgrave causes him to start sabotaging Jessica's actions, and deteriorate even further when Kilgrave attempts to blow him up. An injured Will, in desperation, contacts his old spec-ops unit in order to procure special pills that help him heal. The pills have an unfortunate side effect of causing him to become violent and irrational, to the point where he locks up Trish and tries to murder Jessica. Trish manages to escape, and after consuming some of Simpson's pills, helps an injured Jessica knock him out (an attempt that nearly costs Trish her life).

Trish recovers and assists Jessica with capturing Kilgrave by acting as a decoy to surprise him. Despite a few setbacks, their plan succeeds, and they manage to stop Kilgrave once and for all.

Powers & Abilities[]

Powers[]

Artificially Enhanced Physiology: Envious of Jessica Jones' powers, Walker convinced Karl Malus to treat her to get powers like those of her sister. After realizing her abilities developed, Walker trained at a park and gym to test the limits of her condition.

  • Enhanced Reflexes: Upon recovery from the procedure done to her by Malus, Walker developed faster than normal reflexes. When bumped by a resident at Jessica Jones' Apartment Building, she was able to catch her phone with her foot before it could shatter on the floor and then she returned it to her hands. Walker even deflected strikes from Malcolm Ducassethrown punches for intruding his office, capable of anticipating security guards equipped with batons avoiding them, and even strikes from the knife Sallinger swung at her with and she managed catch it in her hand with ease. Walker's reflexes were also fast enough to dodge taser strikes from Carl Nussbaumer, multiple hits of a baseball bat and wrench from Jace Montero, and gunfire shot by Gregory Sallinger with no mark placed on her. However, her reflexes are still within human capability as she could be caught off guard, such as when Jessica Jones struck her in an alley before she could react.
  • Enhanced Agility: She has impressive agility and put her body coordination through parkour obstacles to find herself capable of maintaining excellent balance, flexibility, and dexterity while standing on a pole with one leg then perform running off a wall. She effortlessly backflipped from Jessica grabbing her, and after obtaining information from an art gallery computer, she quickly front flipped back to her seat in time before the Tour Guide returned. Walker was even able to have Jeri Hogarth pinned against the wall with her leg extended to the throat. During her assassination of Gregory Sallinger, she also used her newfound agility to regain the upper hand by running up an elevator wall to reestablish her position and won the fight. Then after breaking into Jeri Hogarth's Apartment, she quickly maneuvered her way over her living room couch to briefly have Kith Lyonne held hostage as bait for Jeri Hogarth to help her escape. Walker also used her agility to run up a wall over Jessica’s head to land a single kick on her.
  • Enhanced Durability: Walker's resilience became enhanced to an exceptional degree, which allows her to withstand situations beyond that of a normal person but still within human capability. Trish took a leap outside the window when Jessica assisted her investigation and was smacked to the right side of her face by her sister which blew Trish to the ground in an alley but she recovered with no pain or visible injury. She can also absorb the shock of landing from high falls, as she jumped off the roof of a building without sustaining any discomfort once landing to the surface, and upon her next act as being a vigilante, she leaped from a bridge beam down to the ground unharmed. During her assassination of Gregory Sallinger, she was able to resist his choke hold long enough to flip herself over him and win the fight. She was also able to stay conscious after being thrown into a wooden crate by Jessica, something which had just previously knocked an average man unconscious. However, Walker's durability is still notably inferior to Jessica Jones as she was able to knock down Walker with one strike, after which Walker was too weak to retaliate.
  • Night Vision: Walker's vision has been greatly improved to the point of allowing her to fully see objects even in the darkness of the night. When walking out of Jessica’s Apartment, she looked around her position and her vision highlighted everything in bright clear color. She also used her vision to view in the dark area where Sallinger hid and dumped his victims, and in the kitchen part of the building where Erik Gelden was captured. Then after breaking into Sallinger's Apartment, Walker entered the room in complete darkness, to then spot him running towards her. After assassinating Gregory Sallinger, Jessica walked into Trish Walker's Hideout with the lights completely off and she gets complemented after her sister said it wasn't dark for her. Walker also was able to briefly overpower Jones when she destroyed the electrical generator to turn all the lights off and use her night vision to land blows and avoid her punches.

Abilities[]

  • Expert Martial Artist: Due to the abuse she suffered as a child, Walker began training in the self-defense techniques of Krav Maga, though she was injured during these lessons until she was certified. She resorted to use what she learned when Will Simpson attacked her at her apartment. Notably, she was able to catch Jessica Jones off guard and body slam her into the floor. She was able to incorporate these self-defense tactics when defending Malcolm Ducasse from a group of bigoted thugs who assaulted him, albeit with the aid of Combat Enhancers. Upon awakening her newfound powers, Walker also began training in boxing and incorporated her incredible agility into her fighting style to fight against the criminals of Manhattan. She was able to overpower Gregory Sallinger in both of their fights.
  • Knife Proficiency: Walker can use a knife in combat. This is seen when she used Sallinger's knife against him during their first fight and when she attacked Jessica with a knife during their final fight, but only managed to stab her through the hand.
  • Expert Marksman: Walker appeared to be proficiently skilled in using firearms, as she used the revolver given to her by Will Simpson to shoot Kilgrave in his arm. Also, from a considerable amount of distance, she was also capable of assassinating Alisa Jones while she was onboard the ferris wheel in Playland via shooting her directly in the head.
  • Expert Acrobat: Walker is shown to be a highly skilled acrobat. She can perform backflips off of walls, front flip into chairs, and even use her acrobatics in combat, demonstrated when she first kicked a man, then landed a second kick and used him to propel herself into a backflip. Due to her heightened agility, her acrobatics come naturally to her and thus make her a highly mobile combatant, which grants her a high edge in combat.
  • Bilingualism: Walker spoke both native English and French; she used her ability to speak French to get Maury Tuttlebaum a seat in the restaurant Sattere.
  • Investigator: Walker singlehandedly exposed IGH's illegal activities. When she became a masked vigilante, she effectively followed clues and information, such as Sal Blaskowski's criminal records when trying to determine the identity of the individual who stabbed Jessica.
