Biography

Batman's secret identity is Bruce Wayne, a playboy, industrialist, and philanthropist. Having witnessed the murder of his parents as a child, he swore revenge on crime, an oath tempered with the greater ideal of justice. Wayne trains himself both physically and intellectually and dons a bat-themed costume in order to fight crime. Batman operates in the fictional American Gotham City, fighting an assortment of villains. He uses his wealth to fund his war on terror as Batman, while maintaining his rich playboy image as a secret identity to dispel any suspicion. His archnemesis is the Joker.

MK vs. DC

In the story mode, after Darkseid's apparent defeat, invaders from another dimension began appearing. Batman intervened and stopped a rampaging Flash from killing a defeated Kano. Bringing Flash to the Bat Cave, Batman tried to run some tests on the rage that consumed his teammate, but Flash suddenly disappeared and was replaced with the ninja spectre Scorpion. Mistaking the Dark Knight for Sub-Zero, Scorpion attacked Batman and was defeated. When another power anomaly appeared in Gotham, Batman was forced to take Scorpion with him. Arriving in the city, he was then forced to fight his archnemesis, the Joker. Defeating Joker, Batman was surprised by the sudden appearance of Liu Kang. The rage in the monk made Batman appear as Shang Tsung and another fight ensued with Batman as the victor, but at the cost of Scorpion and Joker escaping. Via Green Lantern, Batman took Kang to the U.N. orbital station, where he discussed that Earth might be in for another invasion. Raiden, the god of thunder, suddenly appeared and demanded Kang's release. Batman refused without obtaining answers and defeated the god in a fight, but Raiden still got away with Kang.

Returning to the Cave, Batman found Sub-Zero searching for Scorpion. Even with the rage powering him up, Batman was defeated by the Lin Kuei warrior. Batman then deduced that, through the magic of the two worlds merging, Superman's strength was being distributed to other heroes and villians. This was demonstrated when Joker defeated Batman in a fight. Subduing the maniac clown, Batman brought them both to the formed team of heroes and villians where they learned that a being named Dark Khan was causing the worlds to merge and everyone falling into the rage. Batman again fought Sub-Zero when the defenders of Earthrealm and the D.C. heroes fought in a final battle. It was Batman who then calmed Superman when he too fell to the rage. Superman then teamed up with Raiden to defeat Dark Khan and separate the worlds. Shao Khan remained and was banished to the Phantom Zone.

Batman is known to always be prepared for just about every situation and predicament thrown at him. He is proficient in a multitude of forms of martial arts, possesses incredible reaction skill and superb intellect and wit. Batman is never seen without his famous Utility Belt, which seems to possess just about every item needed for any problem, primarily in fighting and investigation. His most recurring items range from Batarangs (bat-shaped bladed boomerangs), bat-bolas (used to apprehend and disable fleeing enemies), batcuffs and the Bat-Grappling Hook, which he uses to traverse Gotham when not in his vehicles.
