HISTORY

Jiro Osamu was an associate of the Japanese hero Mister Unknown, but as the hero grew older, Jiro would handle the physical aspect's of the hero's persona while the "real" Mister Unknown did the actual detective work.

The elder Mister Unknown was killed by the so-called Mighty Lord Death Man shortly before Batman arrived in Japan to recruit the hero for the fledgling "Batman, Inc." Jiro quickly became Lord Death Man's next target.

Jiro is now serving as the Batman of Japan.
