Henri Ducard is a fictional character in the Batman comic book universe. The character was later amalgamated with Ra's al Ghul as the main villain in the 2005 film "Batman Begins", a reboot of the Batman franchise Hamm had helped originate.

In the comics, Bruce Wayne approaches Ducard for training in Paris, during his early days traveling the world. Ducard, a knowledgeable detective with excellent man-hunting skills, imparts much of his knowledge to the young, keen Bruce.

Later in the series, it is revealed that Ducard is largely amoral, working for criminals as often as he does the law. He deduces Batman's secret identity, but keeps it to himself, thinking, as he leaves, that Batman continues to exist because true criminals realize he distracts the people from the greater crimes by his public battle against lesser crimes.

In the film, Liam Neeson is Ra's al Ghul and under the pseudonym Henri Ducard, Ducard trains Bruce in ninjutsu, a form of martial arts.

Writer David Goyer said he felt Ducard's was the most complex of all the Batman villains, comparing him to Osama bin Laden; "He's not crazy in the way that all the other Batman villains are. He's not bent on revenge; he's actually trying to heal the world. He's just doing it by very draconian means."
