The alter-ego of Dr Kirk Langstrom, Man-Bat is a brilliant biochemist and former associate and partner of the infamous Dr Emile Dorian. When in this feral state, he is stripped of his intelligence, merely acting on primal rage, instinct and blood-lust.
Targeted by his ex-colleague, Kirk was forcibly injected with a heavily modified version of the Man-Bat formula, transforming him into the Man-Bat hybrid and removing his free will.
Now Dorian's puppet in his revenge scheme against Batman and Selina Kyle, he was sent to gather various mutagenic chemicals needed for Dorian's signature formula, T-99. Satisfied that everything was ready, the geneticist then ordered him to ambush both targets, bringing them to his laboratory in Downtown Gotham.
Unable to break free from Dorian's influence, he protected the doctor when he came under attack from The Werewolf, fighting off the enraged lycanthrope as the lab burned around them. While Man-Bat was believed to have died in the chaos, his body was never found.
