Armand "Armie" Lydecker was The Vulture, one of the Terrible Trio.

History[]

Armand Lydecker, young heir to a company owned by an aerodynamics mogul, joined his companions Warren Lawford and Gunther Hardwicke in the Terrible Trio group of millionaires turning to crime for the simple joy and thrill of it all. The three men then became respectively known as Vulture, Fox and Shark.

Vulture, however, was gradually reluctant in some of their criminal acts, especially in an attack on their associate Sheldon Fallbrook. Out of the three, he showed the most concern while on the crime spree, albeit out of fear of getting busted, as Batman was on their tails. He did, however, seem reluctant to attack Mr. Fallbrook as it was someone he knew, but his protests were rather feeble, and he did nothing to withdraw himself from that robbery.

When Fox decided to eliminate Rebecca Fallbrook upon having their identities revealed, Vulture protested multiple times and tried to get Fox to reconsider, saying Fox was going too far, but ultimately participated in spite of himself. The attempt was foiled by Batman; while Shark engaged Batman, Vulture tried to flee, but was ultimately captured. Although only one of the Terrible Trio is shown imprisoned, it is strongly suggested that Lydecker was convicted of his crimes and sent to jail alongside his compatriots Hardwicke and Lawford.
