Glinda - Once Upon a Time Season Three (2013)

Known as the Good Witch of the South, Glinda was a powerful mage in Oz, forming the Sisterhood of Oz with fellow Witches of the North and East, in order to protect their home. Residing at the Heart of Oz, Glinda embodied love, one of the four elements of magic. To show her membership within the order, she was the owner of a special crystal pendant that allowed her to store, channel and focus her magic, making it far stronger than what she had been able to do on her own.

Glinda had a very testy relationship with the Wizard of Oz, seeing through his act of the benevolent bringer of hope as nothing more than the works of a confidence trickster. This resulted in the two never seeing eye to eye, only meeting in the most pressing of circumstances and showing feigned contempt for the other.

She was the keeper and protector of the Book of Records, a tome which contained the history and future of the whole of the realm. Having learned about Zelena's arrival to Oz as a child via a cyclone, Glinda and the Sisterhood kept an eye on them, seeing her as the one promised to defeat the tyranny of the Wizard and take her place as the protector of the West and the embodiment of innocence.

She eventually revealed herself to Zelena after the latter transformed the Wizard into her pet monkey, travelling to the Emerald City to personally thank her for showing Oz that they had been putting their faith in a liar and a fraud for years. Raising the fact that a time travel spell would be impossible to achieve, she sugge
sted that Zelena instead come and meet the Sisterhood, where she would be accepted as a member of the order.

Bringing Zelena to the Heart of Oz, Glinda introduces her sisters, explaining that the reason why she had brought the young witch to them was to give her a new future as one of their council. When Zelena expressed doubt that she could ever represent innocence due to her past deeds, Glinda reinforced the idea that "innocence reclaimed" was equally as powerful as innocence from birth. On the Witch of the North's prompting, Glinda reluctantly told Zelena about the prophecy written in the Book of Records, adding that she did not want to tell her about it, as she wanted the young mage to chose her own destiny. Upon Zelena realising that the prophecy was about her, Glinda welcomed her as a temporary member of the Sisterhood, adding that they had been waiting for her.

After Zelena lets go of her anger and resentment for Regina and Rumplestilskin, Glinda congratulated her for her progress, presenting the young mage with a pendant and placing it around her neck. She warned Zelena that she needed to guard the pendant with her life, adding that without it, she would be powerless. She proudly concluded that Zelena was in now a member of the the Sisterhood.

Taking her to the yellow brick road, both Glinda and Zelena surveyed the West, shocked to see a cyclone blow across the hills. She let out a horrified cry upon the discovery that there was something hurtling around the outside of the chromosphere.

Investigating the remains of the wooden house, Glinda heard Dorothy Gale's cries for help, pulling her from the wreckage. Irritated by Zelena's persistence to know who she was and where she was from, she suggested that the girl came and stayed with them at the Heart of Oz while they figured out how to return her to Kansas.

Welcoming Dorothy into their home, Glinda was the only one to notice Zelena spying on them from the window outside. Realising something was wrong, she excused herself from the table and went to check on her sister, following her to the nearby well. Asking what was wrong, she was unnerved by Zelena's theft of the Book of Records. She attempted to reassure Zelena that they were sisters, promising that despite Dorothy's arrival in the cyclone, the Witch of the West would not be the bad threat that must be destroyed to free Oz from tyranny.

Confused about shouting at the well later that evening, Glinda is saddened by the news that Zelena had attacked Dorothy, consoling the girl with the fact that she had done nothing wrong. She went on to add that due to her throwing water at the Witch of the West, she had fulfilled the prophecy. Offering the young girl a place with the Sisterhood, she accepted Dorothy's wish to go home, remarking that although she could not return her to Kansas, she knew that the Wizard would do it as a reward for reverting him back to human form - blissfully unaware that Zelena had faked her own death.

Accompanying Dorothy to the Emerald City, Glinda instructed the girl to talk speak with the Wizard and make her request. She wished her safe travels as the latter used the magic of a pair of silver slippers to transport her home. With
Dorothy now gone, she begrudgingly thanked the Wizard for his help, telling him that it was safe to reveal his true form and come out from behind the curtain.

However she is horrified to learn that Zelena had impersonated the Wizard, questioning how it was possible for her to still be alive after being reduced to nothing by a bucket of water. Realising that she had been duped, Glinda defiantly stated that she would do whatever she could to summon a hero to Oz that would defeat the Wicked Witch of the West once and for all. But before she could plead for her sister to reconsider her actions, she was banished by Zelena to the Enchanted Forest.

Trapped in Zelena's home world, Glinda exiled herself to the far north of the Dark Forest, keeping herself as far away from people as possible and reflecting on her failure to save Zelena from becoming a force of evil and terror.

Following Rumplestiltskin's riddle, Snow White and Prince Charming travelled to the Dark Forest with Regina in search of the entrance to Glinda's realm. Glinda had enchanted a door in the middle of the wood that would only transport people to her that had pure hearts capable of feeling love and hope, which Regina mislabelled as "a portal with a cheap cloaking spell." 

"A Curious Thing"

Appearing behind the couple as they wondered allowed about her being "the Witch of the South" in a frozen world, Glinda remarked that the stories about her had been true up until her banishment to the Enchanted Forest. She reluctantly informed them that Regina had not been able to arrive with them due to having a heart "full of vengeance," adding that only good witches and beings of extraordinary courage and devotion could pass through her portal. 

She interrupted Snow White's protest to being called a witch, remarking that she was fully aware of who she was and had heard stories of her deeds before the enactment of the First Dark Curse. She went on to tell her that she her unborn child had a pure and uncorrupted heart, a source of powerful sorcery. 

Asked to aid them in the fight against Zelena, Glinda was regretful that she was not able to help her, due to her being far less powerful than her former ally. She explained how the two had been friends in the past, before Zelena allowed herself to be consumed by envy and dark magic.  She expressed her regret at failing to stop the Wicked Witch of the West. 

However, she reassured Snow that there although Zelena was skillful practitioner of magic, the Witch of the West was not invincible. She directed their attention to her pendent, remarking that she had given the Witch one similar, musing that since her magic now resided within the crystal, the removal of the pendant would leave her vulnerable. She noted that it would not be an easy task, stating that the only way to counter Zelena's dark magic was potent light magic. Expressing the importance of light magic, a product of true love, she listens to Snow's belief that their daughter Emma Swan could be the one to save them all. 

Upon hearing that Emma was not in the Enchanted Forest, Glinda remarked that their quest could not succeed. Due to there being no other option, Snow declared that they must enact the Dark Curse one again to spirit them back to Storybrooke.

Richard Sionis - Prime Earth - Catwoman (2011)

The father of Roman Sionis, Richard Sionis was the president and head of Sionis Investments, having run the company for years before his health took a turn for the worse. He was reported to have had ties to criminal organisations, however their was no proof to corroborate these accusations. Richard was the founder of the False Face Society. He had a very estranged relationship with his son, however both shared a fascination for masks, hoarding a vast collection in his mansion. He was said to be "the premier collector of masks in the world."

Sionis wanted to expand the False Face Societies' operations across Europe for many years, however did not allow Roman to lead this mission. Instead he set about looking for the perfect candidates; people who were hungry for power and had no connections to Sionis should the outpost fall.

Several years before he was taken ill, Selina Kyle and her former boyfriend David Franco stole Richard's credit card, using it to make numerous purchases. Upon discovering this, he tracked down the couple - after members of the Society kept tabs on them - and corned them in an alleyway. Getting out of his car, he mockingly interrupted Selina as she threatened her attackers, demanding to know what he intended to do to them. Calmly taking a punch to the face, Sionis' mask slipped off his face, introducing himself to the defiant thief. He remarked that he knew who they both were and what they had done with his stolen card.

Bringing the couple back to his home, Richard boasted about his collection, looking for a book - The History of Gotham - as David demanded to know what the collection had to do with them. Opening the book on the Faceless Mask, he began to explain that the object was as old as Gotham, adding that there were legends about it being cursed. Musing on the mask's return to Gotham, he coldly remarked that he wanted them to steal it from the Gotham Museum of Crime. Interrupting David's objection to the plan, he ordered his men to turn guns on them, reminding the couple that they had stolen from him - reasoning that he would overlook their transgression if they complied with his demand. Amused by Selina's demand to get paid for willingly accepting his boon, Richard humoured her explanation, finding all her points to be very compelling - that as they were two streets kids with no past connection to Sionis, as well as being highly talented thieves, thirty thousand dollars would allow them both to leave Gotham, whilst he got the Faceless Mask. Agreeing to her terms, he remarked that he liked her spirit. He let them go, satisfied by Selena's promise that the mask would be in his collection by the next morning.

Watching the news, Richard smirked at the breaking reports of a burglary at the Museum of Crime, he sarcastically remarked at the anchor's comment that nobody knew the culprits of the crime. He is approached by a society member, who notified the boss that Selina and David were there to see him with the stolen mask. When David knocked out the henchmen and turned the gun on him - much to the surprise of Selina - Richard warned him not to make threats. He smiled as he watched David was shot by a hidden loyalist, remarking how beneficial it was to work with an underground network that had experience in hiding and secrecy, since no one could see them coming. Turning to Selina, Richard gave her the choice, to leave now David to die and live, or to stay and be caught by the authorities for trespassing and stealing from Sionis. He is satisfied by her choice to leave without a fuss, allowing her to say - what she thought would be - her final farewell.

In reality, Richard had made a deal with David that would ensure he became the head of the Societies European Division, if he sold Selina out and fake his own death. Due to being sexist, he did not deem Selina to be high up in the organisation due to her being female.

In his guise as the Black Mask, both he and his son have been in a war that had splintered the organisation in two.  In an effort to end this, he hired Franco to take on the mantle of the White Mask, steal The Faceless Mask and run the organisation in his image.

Richard was administered in the Gotham Hospital, where he was in chronic pain. The news of his terminal illness was reported on Gotham News.


"Faceless, Part One"

On the evening that the Faceless Mask had been stolen from his house, Richard suffered from a particularly painful attack, screaming for a nurse to tend to him. Begging her to give him anything that can relieve him of his pain, he let the nurse inject an unknown compound into his intravenous drip. Thanking her for the assistance, he suddenly yelled in horror as his whole body convulsed, opening his eyes wider as the substance took effect on him. As he looked into the nurse's face, he is panicked by the sight of her, realising that it was in fact his son disguised as an employee at the hospital. Pressing down on the panic button, he attempted to summon aide, pleading for somebody to help him.

Richard implored his son to stop, acknowledging that although they had a history that was far from amicable, he was still his father. However, Roman remarked that all he wanted from him was to see him die. He finally fell silent, breathing his last breath.

As a final insult to injury, Roman put his father's old mask on his corpse, boasting that he would now take control of the False Face Society.

Joseph Chilton - Earth-32 - Batman: The Dawnbreaker (2017)

A resident of Gotham City, Joseph Chilton - also known as Joe Chill - was an armed criminal responsible for holding up the Gotham socialites Thomas and Martha Wayne, as well as their young son Bruce. He proceeded to shoot and kill his marks, taking Thomas' wallet for himself.


"Fear of the Dark" 

Turning the gun on Bruce, Joe remarked that he had got what he had come for, ordering the boy to get on his knees and close his eyes. Warning Bruce that he would get hurt if he tried anything heroic, the mugger ran off and left the grieving boy by his parents' bodies.

Stopping to catch his breath, Joe flicked through the stolen wallet. However, he is interrupted by Bruce, who has been granted the power of flight through a Green Power Ring. Stunned by the furious youth, he began to back away as he was called a "bastard," dropping the stolen wallet and begging Bruce to take the money, so long as he was saved.

He tried to flee as Bruce's Ring struggled to deliver a killing strike, looking slightly relived as he heard the device tell the young teen that he could not use lethal force. However, before he can get away, Bruce's will to avenge his parent's death overpowered the ring, allowing him to dismiss the First Law of the Green Lantern and engaging deadly weapons. He is bathed in a burning green light, screaming as his flesh is seared off, reducing the mugger into a smoking skeleton.

Batman - Earth-22 - Dark Nights: The Batman Who Laughs (2017)

After his parents were shot and killed in an ally one evening, Bruce Wayne trained to fight his fears and become a symbol of Justice for the city of Gotham.

Over the years, Batman worked with the G.C.P.D to capture numerous costumed individuals, eventually taking in several people under his wing and training them to become members of the Bat Family. Inviting them all back to the Batcave and trusting them with his secret identity, he put them through vigorous simulations to keep them at the peak physical health.

Batman was also one of the founding members of the Justice League and the main petitioner for the armoury - wishing to study the confiscated weapons to understand how they worked and build defences against them. He mastered how to use all of them.


"The Batman Who Laughs"

Racing off to confront the Joker, Batman was overpowered by the Clown Prince of Crime and drugged, keeping him paralysed but fully conscious of all the chaos that the villain was causing across Gotham. He listened in fury as his nemesis gloated about all the crimes he had committed. However his anger turned to loathing and ferocity as he watched the Joker begin shooting several parents in the head, infecting their traumatised children with Joker Toxin and turning them lose on the burning city. He managed to break free from his bonds, overcoming immobility and pouncing on top of Joker, punching him several times with enough force to knock out teeth. In a brutal frenzy, Batman repeatedly told the Clown that he would not be allowed to repeat his actions, breaking his neck. However as he breathed in, panting from such a display of aggression and force, Bruce inhaled a nanotoxin strain that had been released upon the Joker's last breath.

Taking time to run an autopsy on the Joker's corpse, Batman discovered that the Joker was dying from the chemicals that altered his appearance, slowly killing him from the inside out.

Two days after he killed the Clown, he met with Superman in a warehouse, reporting his findings to Clark. He went on to reassure his friend that he would not become a killer, explaining that the only reason why he had committed the act was because he had not been given any other choice. Batman went on to muse that the children that the Joker had contaminated may be unable to save. Upon hearing that one of the young children attempted to tear out the throat of a psychologist, he let out small laugh, quickly composing himself and apologising for the outburst, declaring that he was sorry and that what he had heard was "not funny."

Batman began running tests on himself, horrified to find that he was succumbing to the nanotoxin, becoming the person who, over the corse of his life, had taken so much from his city. He was unable to cure his condition, which was quickly taking hold of him, desperately trying to ensure that no one else would find out his secret. He doused his own son Damian in a chemical concoction that would turn him into a maddened version of himself - transforming in a similar way to that of the surviving children of the Joker's final attack.

Three Days later, Batman stalled the rest of his family with a three hour training programme as he waited to determine the results of tests he ran on himself. Realising that he was turning into his worst enemy with no cure to the effects, Batman resigned himself to his fate, wanting to eliminate his family so they would not discover the truth and report him to the Justice League.

He told them the truth, explaining that even if they were to lock him in the Phantom Zone, he would still be a threat to the world. He added that he brought them there for a specific reason, laughing manically as he turned on them with a pair of machine guns - murdering Nightwing, Batgirl, Red Hood and Red Robin in cold blood.

Batman began producing a potent strand of Black Kryptonite to use against Superman, targeting Supergirl as a trail run. Satisfied with the results, he set about planning the downfall of the Justice League.

A week the slaughter of his loved ones, Batman travelled to the Watchtower, where he butchered every last member of the League with the assembled weapons from their rogues gallery. He left Superman till last, exposing both himself and his son to a sample of Black Kryptonite as he gloated to his former friend that he was doing this because he wanted to, adding that it was fun killing them. He assured Superman that people would try to oppose him, growing excited at the prospect as means to exercise his new drive to ravage the world in the name of chaos. He mockingly suggested that Superman try to reassure his family that all was going to be alright, callously remarking that Clark could lie to his family, since the Krytponian would not comply. He introduced them to the New Bat Family, made up of the kids the Joker had tortured and infected, as well as Damian Wayne. He reprimanded Damian for interrupting, pointing out that he was speaking with Superman and Lois. He casually replied that not only did Damian willingly joined his side, but also helped Batman devise how to kill the League and the Man of Steel. Agreeing with Lois that he didn't have to do this, Batman tossed the Kryptonite at both Superman and Jon, smiling as the Kryptonians tore Lane to pieces before dying themselves.

As a final act of the Batman of his world, Bruce smeared blood on the window in the shape of a smile. Turning his back on his role as Gotham vigilante, he became known as The Batman Who Laughed, a servant of Barbatos and the leader of the Dark Knights.


Appearances:

1. "The Batman Who Laughs" - First and Only Appearance (As Batman/Origin)

The Joker - Earth-22 - Dark Nights: The Batman Who Laughs (2017)

Known as one of Batman's most dangerous adversaries, the Joker both loved and hated his nemesis, always wanting to push Wayne to his limits and make him a better hero. They had been enemies for years, often being committed to the Elizabeth Arkham Asylum for the Criminally Insane.

At some point during their fight against each other, Joker learned the identity of his nemesis as Bruce Wayne. He has had numerous encounters with both Batman and the Bat Family, causing them much pain

Discovering that the chemicals in his system - responsible for transforming him into the villain - were quickly killing him, the Joker set about devising a plan to preserve his memory and pass on the mantle to a new successor - believing that no host would be more perfect that Batman himself, since he had the potential to force the hero to abandon his rule about not killing in the process. The cells in his body underwent a process of autophagy.

Before his confrontation with Batman in his final endgame, the Clown Prince of Crime spied on Commissioner James Gordon, enjoying his demand for him to be arrested "by the book." He slaughtered his way through the G.C.P.D, leaving Gordon to last. Using a highly corrosive acid, the Joker hurled the substance in his face, enjoying the sight of his enemy dissolving in front of him as he begged for his daughter Barbara. He decided to take Gordon's pipe, glasses, coat, bullet riddled badge and trench coat as a means to goad Batman.

He went on to murder Batman's allies and enemies alike, going so far as to butcher Penguin, Killer Croc, the Ventriloquist, Scarface and Catwoman. He deemed this as "Burning the Book" and preparing for the "joke too far."


"The Batman Who Laughs"

Detonating multiple bombs to destroy buildings around Gotham, Joker mockingly asked the bound and drugged Batman which hospital he had destroyed - "Mercy Hospital or Gotham General?". He demanded that Batman fight back and stop him, noting that the stimulant he had been doused with only paralysed his body, keeping his brain functioning. He boasted that he had been planning his operations for months, musing over the ease of "systematically killing a whole city."

Joker gleefully recounted how he murdered Gordon, slipping the Commissioner's coat over his own, noting that they did not have left. He went on to add that their battle would not last forever, so that they would need to adapt to survive, or die in the conflict.

In a sick and twisted ploy to push Batman over the edge, he proceeded to force families with young children to walk towards the pair, shooting the parents though the head in a style similar to of the Waynes. Going to the girl's side, he told her not to be afraid, welcoming her to his new city as he infected her Joker Venom. He repeated the process, shooting over a dozen sets of parents before Batman could finally overcome paralysis and fight back. As the vigilante beat him to a bloody pulp, he kept bragging that Batman would not stop him, pushing him so far over the edge that the Dark Knight broke his neck.

In his final gasp of breath Joker gained his final victory over his nemesis, infecting him with a concentrated version of a Joker Nanotoxin that would alter Batman's brain and personality to create a new and far more dangerous version of himself. The virulent strain laid dormant in his body, only becoming harmful if the carrier suffered from "necrosis."

His final plan ended with victory, resulting in the creation of a new and far more violent version of Batman.

Thomas Wayne - Reanimated Corpse - Earth-32 - Batman: The Dawnbreaker (2017)

Having been gunned down in a dark alley during a mugging, Thomas Wayne's death had a terrible impact on his son Bruce, filling him with a void of darkness, despair and loneliness.

Bruce tried in vain to bring his father back, only for the process to reveal that it was impossible by Oan technology to revive his parents, forcing him to look for extreme measures and make a deal with the "Man Who Laughs". 

"Fear of the Dark" 

Believing that his Green Power Ring was capable of being the most powerful weapon in the Universe, Bruce demanded that the device brought his parents back to life so that he could continue living with them. He mused that he would even give up the ring if he could successfully carry out the resurrection. 

However, despite the Power Ring being corrupted by its new owner to operate far beyond the capabilities of previous Lanterns, the symbol of will was unable to completely bring back Thomas Wayne. Instead, what was produced was a reanimated corpse barely capable of performing human speech, quickly severing the ties to the ring and collapsing back into a heap on the floor.

Martha Wayne - Reanimated Corpse - Earth-32 - Batman: The Dawnbreaker (2017)

Murdered in front of her own son by Joseph Chilton, Bruce Wayne was left feeling hopeless and depressed by the death of Martha. However his lack of fear earned him a Green Power Ring and the beacon of willpower for the entire space sector 2814.

His desire to bring his mother back properly compelled the newly christened Dawnbreaker to join the Dark Knights as a warrior and emissary of Barbatos.


"Fear of the Dark" 

Having avenged Martha and Thomas by killing Joe Chill in cold blood, Bruce tried to use the damaged Power Ring to reanimate the corpse of his mother, hoping that they could all continue to function as a family. He went on to conclude that he would not need the ring, only desiring to have his parents love and support.

Although the ring was able to partially restore her corpse, Martha was not whole, trying desperately to express her love for her son. But she could only hold consciousness for a few minutes, collapsing at her sons feet and leaving him to start his crusade against crime and injustice in Gotham City.

Thomas Wayne - Earth-32 - Batman: The Dawnbreaker (2017)

A famous surgeon in Gotham City, Thomas and his wife Martha were famous throughout numerous social circles for their philanthropy. He was the father of Bruce.

Cutting down an alleyway one night on their way back home, Thomas and his family were cornered by a street mugger and held up at gunpoint. The assailant - Joseph Chilton (Joe Chill) - proceeded to kill both him and his wife right in front of their son, running off with his wallet and leaving him to bleed out onto the pavement.


"Fear of the Dark" 

In response to his father's death, Bruce enacted vengeance on Chilton, using the Green Power Ring he had obtained to murder the thug in cold blood. He went one step further when he tried to use willpower to resurrect both Thomas and Martha from the grave, bringing forth malformed copies of the two that were quick to die.

Green Lantern devised a code to use lethal force in retaliation against crimes in Gotham, believing that criminals should die, so that the innocent can live without fear or pain.

Due to the darkness that had corrupted both his ring and his heart since the loneliness and guilt of being powerless to save both his parents, Bruce decided he would commit suicide by walking into his own central power battery, musing that soon they would be reunited. However this was in fact the birth of a new persona in the form of the Dawnbreaker.

Seeing how much Thomas and Martha meant to Bruce, Barbatos sent his spokesperson the "Man who Laughs" to Earth -32 with the condition that he would use his powers to properly restore them back to their original forms, only if Dawnbreaker joined his Dark Knights.

Martha Wayne - Earth-32 - Batman: The Dawnbreaker (2017)

The wife of Thomas Wayne and mother of Bruce, Martha Wayne was a prominent member of the Gotham City community.

One evening while walking home down an alleyway, the whole Wayne family are held up at gunpoint by a mugger. She was shot at medium range and killed instantly, falling down to join her husband, to the horror of her son. 

"Fear of the Dark" 

The murder of Martha Wayne caused a deep psychological trauma within the young Bruce Wayne, causing him to feel an empty void of helplessness and loneliness within him. 

After a failed attempt to resurrect her from the dead, Bruce became the Green Lantern of Sector 2814 and began killing criminals, wanting them to pay for their sins and ensure that nobody else would feel the loss that he did. 

Bruce tried to commit suicide after he killed Jim Gordan, multiple members of the Guardians of the Universe and Green Lantern Corps, stating he could not live without his parents, however this only transformed him into the being known as Dawnbreaker. 

On the condition that Martha would be properly restored to life, Dawnbreaker joined the "Man who Laughs" and the Dark Knights as a servant of Barbatos, wanting to make the people of Prime Earth's Coast City feel the pain he had felt.

Green Lantern - Earth-32 - Batman: The Dawnbreaker (2017)

Sensing the potential to overcome great fear, a Green Power Ring was sent to the planet Earth in sector 2814, where it bonded with a young Bruce Wayne. Overpowering the device with his will for revenge and escaping the loneliness he was feeling, having just witnessed his parents being murdered right in front of him in a mugging, Wayne used the ring to kill Joseph Chilton and get revenge for their deaths. Trying and failing to bring them back, Bruce kept the ring for himself, setting out to honour his parents and fight to ensure that people would not feel the same loss and pain that he did.

Over the next three years, he would go on to become the hero known as Green Lantern, working with the police in order to rid Gotham City of crime. However, his methods were violent, believing that all criminals needed to die so that innocence could live.


"Fear of the Dark" 

Green Lantern was summoned to the rooftop of the G.C.P.D by Commissioner Gordon, who lit the Green Power Battery. The hero told Gordon to watch his tone as the latter remarked that he wasn't expecting to see him, musing that the last police officer who showed him disrespect ended up paying for it. He listened as the Commissioner mentioned a few reports for missing people and a manhunt for the criminal known as the Scarecrow.

Before the villain could strike the city with a missile, Green Lantern used a construct to catch the weapon and send it hurtling to space, taking Scarecrow out of Earth's atmosphere and allowing the pressure to make him explode.

Green Lantern returned to Gordon a few days later, ignoring the latter's attempt to question the whereabouts of the Scarecrow, before getting a tip off that the Penguin and a few of his henchmen where operating illegally within Gotham.

Smashing through the roof of the Penguin's establishment, he used his power ring to cause a massive black out, using shadow constructs to slaughter Penguin's henchmen and disarm their boss. Green Lantern flew out of Earth's atmosphere, telling Penguin that he had had enough of his criminal operation and wasn't going to stand for it anymore, calling him "stupid" and "disgusting." He left Penguin to die, before seeking out Commissioner Gordon.

The Commissioner demanded to know what he had done to Penguin, defiantly declaring that the G.C.P.D would no longer work with Lantern because of his methods - repulsed by Bruce's actions against Detective Harvey Bullock, as well as the most recent murder of Penguin, which the hero treated as a joke. Angered by Gordon's endeavour to appeal to his former life and the realisation that he knew who he was, Lantern used his ring to obliterate Jim, noting that it was "sad" that he had been pushed to that and adding that now his daughter would have to grow up without her "father".

Before he can fly away, he is confronted by a handful of Green Lanterns and the Guardians of the Universe, who tell the renegade Lantern that he had to be stopped for his repeated abuse of his power ring and the violation of the first law of the Corps - No killing. They also expressed their concern that he could infect the whole Green Lantern Corps with his darkness, achieving something that no other Lantern could ever do. He excitedly tells them that he is not alone and had friends he could call upon to help him fight them, activating a blackout and using his shadow constructs to tear through the Corps and their founders. After decapitating the only surviving member of the onslaught, Green Lantern expressed how he could no longer cope with the loss of his parents, willing to kill himself in order to join them.

But as he walks into the lantern,  he is surrounded by a colony of bats, inspiring himself to become something new. Altering the words of his former Green Lantern Oath, he took on the identity of the Dawnbreaker.

Bruce Wayne - Earth-32 - Batman: The Dawnbreaker (2017)

The son of a prominent family within Gotham City, Bruce Wayne watched as his parents were gunned down right in front of him by a mugger. He was unmoved by their deaths, feeling as though he had been swallowed up by a "dark void" and making him incapable of feeling fear as he chased after Joseph Chilton (Joe Chill) - the man responsible for killing Thomas and Martha Wayne. A Green Power Ring appeared before him and welcomed him into the Green Lantern Corps as it flew onto his finger.


"Fear of the Dark" 

Mastering the ability to fly, Bruce pursued Chill, coming across the mugger as he was flicking through Thomas' stolen wallet. He yelled that he was no longer a helpless kid, promising the older man that he was going to kill him.  However, Bruce's ring tells him that due to the First Law of the Green Lantern Corps, a Green Power Ring is unable to be used as a hostile weapon.

Due to Bruce's inner darkness, the young boy is able to corrupt his ring, creating a skeletal alien construct to hunt down and kill Chill as he attempted to flee. He justified the action saying that Joe needed to die for what he had done to his parents.

Returning to the alleyway where the two were gunned down, Bruce attempted to resurrect his dead parents. He mused that he would give up his power ring, describing it as the "most powerful weapon in the Universe" for his parents to be alive. However, he could only bring their corpses back to life for mere minutes, allowing him to see that what he had brought back were only the shells of Thomas and Martha. His hope began to waver and he felt alone. He allowed the press to believe that he was dead, turning his back on his birth name and old life and setting out to bring his own brand of Justice to his home town.

Bruce took on the mantle of the Green Lantern, becoming known as a hero throughout Gotham. However he believed that criminals should die, particularly since innocent people like his parents were dying all the time by their hands. He had been operating for three years since his parents had been gunned down.

Having eventually murdered a small portion of the Green Lantern Corps and the Guardians of the Universe, Bruce tried to commit suicide by walking into Green Power Battery he set up on the roof of the G.C.P.D Building - believing that his life was full of darkness and that he was still the scared little boy that had fallen into a cave full of Bats beneath Wayne Manor.

However when he emerged from the Lantern he shed both his identity as Bruce Wayne and Green Lantern, taking on the mantle Dawnbreaker, joining the "Man who Laughs" as a servant of Barbatos on the condition that he would have the power to bring his parents back. The void in his heart was so intense that he began hating the rest of the world, wanting to make the Multiverse feel as lonely and helpless as he had been.

The Atlanteans - Earth -11 - Batman: The Drowned (2017)

A race of humanoid beings who adapted to live in the oceans of the world, the Atlanteans originated from the Kingdom of Atlantis, which had sunk many thousands of years ago. They were ruled by their queen, who was given the nickname Aquawoman by the surface world, spending an extended period of time in self imposed exile.

The Atlanteans followed their monarch to the surface world, under the banner of peace and cooperation between themselves and the surface dwellers. But these talks took a turn for the worse, breaking down and leading to a war. The Atlanteans used sea creatures and warships to conquer their enemy, forcing the Gotham vigilante Batwoman to target Aquawoman with the hopes that the army would disperse and retreat upon the death of their commander.

Viewing the Atlanteans as vicious and uncaring beings, Batwoman justified her actions to violently butcher Aquawoman, grabbing her trident half way through the fight and driving it through her chest.

The Atlanteans retaliated by unleashing a tidal wave that sunk Gotham City, forcing Bryce Wayne to take drastic steps to ensure that she could defeat their army for good. Batwoman and her new army of the Dead Water met the Atlanteans again in battle, this time vanquishing the soldiers. Many of the Atlanteans fell to Batwoman's Dead Water Infection, transforming them into new soldiers for her legion and turning on their former allies.

However, despite Batwoman's victory over the Atlanteans, the war had violent consequences, including the sinking of all major, towns, cities and settlements.


"The Rime of the Ancient Mariner"

Due to her participation in the war - having slaughter many Atlanteans on her own Earth, including Aquawoman herself - the Drowned believed that she could kill Aquaman and Mera and take complete control of Amnesty Bay for herself.

Dead Water Possessed Mera - Prime Earth - Batman: The Drowned (2017)

Responding to reports that Amnesty Bay had been flooded, Mera and her husband Aquaman battled against the woman responsible for destroying their surface world home, The Drowned. She was quickly overpowered when the Dark Knight summoned her army of Dead Waters and was infected by her sorcery, transforming her into a loyal servant through prolonged physical contact to her opponent.


"The Rime of the Ancient Mariner"

With her body and mind in possession of the Drowned, Mera rushed towards Aquaman with the intent to kill him, ignoring his demands to know what Wayne had done to her. However before she can strike the killing blow, Aquaman is spirited away by a golden glowing Ankh symbol - the magic of the mage Doctor Fate.

The Dead Water - Earth-11 - Batman: The Drowned (2017)

Following the destruction of Gotham City at the hands of the Atlanteans, Bryce Wayne used hybrid DNA to bio-engineer an army of loyal sea creatures, which she called the Dead Water. With the aid of her creations, Batwoman was able to win the Atlantean War, installing herself as the protector and ruler of what remained of the world - which had been sunk as a result of the fighting.

Throughout the war, Batwoman used the powers she had acquired through the Atlantean Trident and her own biological and technological enhancements to infect her enemies, mutating their bodies and transmuting them into Dead Water. These infected beings would flock to her side, growing the ranks of her army.

After Bryce became a warrior and servant to Barbatos, the Dead Water remained on their Earth, as the Drowned went on to conquer Prime Earth with her fellow members of the Dark Knights.


"The Rime of the Ancient Mariner",

During her battle with Aquaman and Mera in the flooded ruins of Amnesty Bay, The Drowned opened up a "conduit" between Prime Earth and Earth -11, summoning her army to help destroy the Atlantean heroes. Mera is shocked at the sight of them, recognising them from their counterparts on their own Earth. The Legion quickly overpower both Mera and Aquaman, allowing their leader to infect Mera and turn her into a Dead Water to. The infected Mera turned on her husband, almost killing him if not for the intervention of Doctor Fate, who teleported the Atlantean King away from the battlefield.

Aquawoman - Earth-11 - Batman: The Drowned (2017)

The ruling monarch of the Atlanteans, Aquawoman led her armies into a self-imposed exile, secluding in areas that could not be detected by humans.

However, eighteen months after Batwoman had hunted down and murdered the last of Earth's meta-humans, Aquawoman rose from the sea with her people. She wished to parley with the surface dwellers, promising them that she was suing for peace between the two nations. But those talks ended in disaster, resulting in a bloody war between the two races. Aquawoman went up against the Gotham City vigilante and was eventually defeated, impaled through the chest with her own Trident, which Batwoman took for herself as a trophy of her victory.

Her death enraged the Atlanteans, who unleashed a tidal wave that flooded Gotham City, an act of retaliation for the loss of their queen.


"The Rime of the Ancient Mariner"

The Drowned remembered killing Aquawoman, musing that she had murdered many Atlanteans before and therefore could overpower her Prime Earth counterpart Aquaman, as he and Mera tried to incapacitate her in the flooded ruins of Amnesty Bay.

Sylvester Kyle - Earth-11 - Batman: The Drowned (2017)

The lover of Bryce Wayne, the Gotham City vigilante Batwoman, Sylvester Kyle was a source of happiness and joy in her life. However at some point during her career, he was murdered by a group of criminals with meta-human abilities.

"The Rime of the Ancient Mariner"

His death sparked a mental breakdown in Bryce, making her resentful of all meta-humans and setting out to kill them all. She began to see her world as a vile and lawless place that could not be saved by anyone. Eventually eighteen months before the arrival of the Atlanteans and the start of the War, Batwoman had hunted down the last of the meta-humans, stating that Sylvester's memory was honoured and his soul avenged.

However Bryce's cynicism convinced her that their was no such thing as an afterlife and that Sylvester had not moved to a better place as she wanted to believe. Bryce even contemplated dying, wishing to have died seconds after her lover so that she did not have to go through the pain of living life without him.

The Crimson Heart - Once Upon a Time Season Six (2016)

A mystical artefact crafted from red glass, the Crimson Heart had the power to drain the magic from a persons body upon contact, removing any ties they had to the practices of the mystic arts. The Heart could also be transplanted into a living host and cure them of any curse inflicted upon them.

To ensure that it did not absorb the magic of a person by accident, it was kept sealed in a wooden box.

Located in the heart of the woods of Oz, the Crimson Heart was guarded by a ferocious lion who attacked all who entered.


"Where Bluebirds Fly"

Having learned of the Heart and its potential to cure him of the Wicked Witch of the North's curse, Stanum persuaded his old friend Zelena to help him claim the heart and break the enchantment placed on him. Managing to fight their way past the lion, Zelena prepared to place the object within his chest, however began to realise that her power was being snatched away with prolonged exposure.

Placing it back into the wooden box, Zelena declared that the item was useless and needed magical energy in order for the Heart to work properly, calling it a "worthless piece of glass". In her anger and desperation to continue her work and complete her Time Travel Spell, the Wicked Witch of the West took the Crimson Heart for herself and left Stanum to transform into a tin statue of a woodsman.

Keeping the Crimson Heart locked away in the Emerald City, the object remained undetected for the time in which the three curses were enacted.

Years later, after the Black Fairy manipulated events and used Zelena's magic transform the Fairy Crystals beneath the mines of Storybrooke into dark magic weapons, Regina ordered her sister to return to Oz and live out her life away from the town. However Zelena defied these orders and returned to the realm she ruled for the sole purpose of retrieving the Crimson Heart, realising that the only way to prevent the Black Fairy from starting the Final Battle with the crystals was to remove all of her magic, reverting them back to sources of Light Magic.


Travelling to Regina's vault, Zelena willingly allowed the Crimson Heart to absorb all of her power, taking the object in her hands as it drained her of every last bit of magic. After the Heart had finished the process of subsuming her magical abilities, the item exploded in a burst of green energy, which cascaded throughout the town and rendered the weaponised crystals inert.

"The Wicked Witch of the North" - Once Upon a Time Season Six (2016)

Following the banishment of Glinda and the breaking of the Sisterhood, the Witch of the North slowly began growing malevolent, until she would earn the name "The Wicked Witch of the North" by the people of Oz.

She would go on to use her powers for terrorising, torture and cursing, punishing people for transgressions.


"Where Bluebirds Fly"

Enraged by the act of the woodcutter Stanum, who cut down one of her trees in the Northern Wood, the Wicked Witch of the North cursed the man with a spell that would transform his whole body to tin. The only cure to this spell would be to find Stanum a new heart that could successfully integrate with his body -  a powerful magical artefact known as the Crimson Heart.

In the end, the Witch's curse claims its victim, reducing Stanum to nothing more than a tin statue carrying an axe.
