History[]
The Gotham Museum of Antiquities is one of the most prominent museums in the city. Margaret Pye used to work as a curator of the museum until she became madly fascinated with the jewels and precious artifacts inside. Knowing she couldn't have them, she turned to crime as Magpie and used the museum as her base of operations. On her first crime activities, Magpie was stopped by Batman and Superman, [1] while on her second criminal wave, she was stopped by Batman and Robin. [2]
Much later, Batman and the third Robin stopped a gang of mercenaries from stealing the Viking hall at the museum and they rescued a group of students that were held hostages.[3]
