BACKGROUND: When still just a petty crook, Death Man would feign death in order to escape capture and punishment; and have his Men of Death dig him out of his grave. Once Batman defeated him by learning his one yogic gimmick, Death Man was somehow able to replicate the qualities of the Lazarus Pit within his own body, but at the cost of his sanity.

Moving to Japan, Death Man set himself up as Lord Death Man — head of the Japanese underworld. He killed Mister Unknown and bombed a busload of children before Batman and Catwoman locked him in a safe that was launched into space. Ra’s al Ghul freed him and brought him to the Leviathan compound in Karachi, Pakistan, where he was restrained and regularly exsanguinated to produce “The Shelley Formula”.

Ra’s was out of viable Lazarus Pits and required Lord Death Man’s Lazarus blood to restore his daughter Talia and grandson Damian to life. Despite repeated bloody attempts at escape, Lord Death Man was kept prisoner by Ra’s and Doctor Darrk — ultimately sealing him in a block of concrete — but in the end they realized that the insanity brought on by the Lazarus Pit ran in Death Man’s blood and discarded him.

As Death Man’s sanity seemed to be returning, he became more and more obsessed with Harley Quinn, building a secret shrine dedicated to her, hidden inside the video game “The Knights of Knavery”. His “Death Minions” grew bored with his lack of interest in crime, but when one tried to play the video game, Lord Death Man tore his arm off rather than allow him to desecrate the shrine.

Death Man secretly funded a reward for his own capture in order to attract the attention of the cash-strapped Harley Quinn, who came for him disguised as a pizza delivery guy. When she presented him with a naked picture of his father — implying that she knew his true identity — Lord Death Man dropped dead and Harley cut out his heart and blended it into a bloody mary, which did not keep him dead for long.

Harley repeated her attacks on Death Man, and his minions were mystified that their Lord kept falling for her simplistic traps, including a birthday invitation to a deadly bouncy castle. The resulting carnage inflicted upon Lord Death Man’s body – he essentially became charred meat immersed in volcanic lava — demonstrated how total his power of regeneration was, as he returned to continue to stalk his “Cherished orange blossom”, Harley Quinn.
