Biography[]
Effigy[]
In Gotham City, a member of the Mutant street gang raced through the sewer on a motorcycle, fleeing from a robbery. When suddenly an armored arm reached out and knocked the gang member off his bike. He cowered as he found himself before Batman. Using a small Bat-taser, Batman incapacitates the gang member and called Nightwing for a report.
She quipped about using handlebars from another motorcycle as she took out two more Mutants. However, several members were savagely murdered by a mysterious creature who was cloaked. Nightwing encountered it before the creature escaped, frightened by flash grenades thrown.
Lantern[]
Batman and Nightwing were fighting more members of the Mutants when suddenly the sidekick noticed a bright yellow light in the sky. Nightwing thought it was a storm, but Batman knew what it really was. The Mutants then made a beeline towards Arkham Asylum with the heroes following in pursuit. Following Parallax's defeat, they lost their powers and were again defeated along with the other inmates of Arkham Asylum and imprisoned.
