It was a rainy night in Gotham, and just like any other night, criminals were wandering the streets robbing innocent civilians, robbing stores, or planning something bigger. But the criminals can never get a break because of the Batman, no matter how high and mighty you were, the Bat was always gonna take you down.

This is a fact many criminals in Gotham are aware of, and they want the situation to change. There were many attempts on the life of the Bat, some were complete failures while some came very close to killing the Batman.

There was one man in Gotham that kept plotting the death of the Batman, that man was Dr. Hugo Strange. He analyzed all of the previous attempts on the life of the Batman, to see what went wrong and if those mistakes could easily be fixed. One day he came to the conclusion that it may be impossible to kill the Batman...In this world.

Hugo Strange started exploring different dimensions and universes through a machine he built a long time ago, this machine was the key to the Batman's demise. One day, he came across a particularly interesting dimension, to say the least, a dimension where 80% of the population possessed some sort of supernatural powers, some godlike while some plain useless.

The doctor remembered his collaboration with Reverse-Flash, where the villain offered him the ability to look into and transport himself to different dimensions and universes, of course, the doctor instantly accepted this offer and so the machine to go through different dimensions came to be.

He transported himself to take a closer look at this universe filled with heroes with different abilities, he managed to learn many things about these powers called "Quirks" in this universe, the doctor then came up with the perfect plan to kill the Batman, if he could get DNA samples of the individuals with quirks he could harness them, and potentially create a drug that could give anyone these powers from who their DNA was sampled from.

Of course, the doctor could not do this alone, he had to get some allies to go through with this plan, and he knew just the right kind of people for this job, these individuals would be more than interested to join in with the doctor in this plan. Strange got back to Gotham City and started contacting the most dangerous and infamous villains in Gotham, to invite them to a secret meeting where they would discuss this new operation to kill the Batman and take over Gotham City.

The villains were indeed interested in this new plan, and the major villains of Gotham eventually made their way to this secret meeting with Doctor Strange.

But unfortunately for the doctor, another visitor was hot on the trail of these villains, the Batman. Batman had spotted the car of the Penguin going through the city on one of his patrols, knowing the Penguin, Batman instantly put a tracker on his car and followed the car of the Penguin to an old abandoned furniture factory that was on the outside of the city.

The major villains eventually showed up to the meeting, as Strange greeted them all and told them to take a seat, some villains were not happy with the presence of other ones since a number of them had some sort of rivalry between them.

Two-Face looked over at the Doctor as Harvey sat on his chair "This better be good Strange, you should be smart enough to know that wasting our time is a huge mistake" Two-Face said as he flipped the coin in his hand

Along this Bane gave a slight nod "Calling us all here, even among the tensions between us for something useless is not a good idea Doctor" Bane replied with his hands crossed, the Villains already began to question what this huge meeting is about.

"Gentlemen, please" Hugo Strange says to them from the front of the table "I am aware that some of you were quite busy at this time, but I can assure you that the reason I called you here for is not in vain." Strange says as he sat up from his chair.
