HISTORY
A serial killer who was convinced that his family is evil, and so wished to eliminate them all, in various painful ways, believing that he absorbed something of their life force as he did so. He was apprehended and incarcerated in Arkham Asylum. On his escape (when Bane set all the inmates free), he encountered the second Batman, and in an encounter with him was allowed to die, perishing when he fell into a vat of molten metal, a fate which he could easily have been saved from.
