[edit] History
Justice Lord Batman's background was identical to that of the Batman of the Justice League, including his witnessing the murder of his parents as a young boy. The two men's histories diverged at some point and Justice Lord Batman witnessed events such as the election of Lex Luthor as President of the United States, and the execution of the Flash. Justice Lord Batman particpated in an attack on the White House, working side by side with Wonder Woman against the Secret Service to clear the way for Superman to confront Luthor in the Oval Office. Upon entering the office with Wonder Woman and seeing the president's fate, his only comment was "it had to be done."[1]
After the takeover of Earth by the Justice Lords, Batman was able to lead a true clean up of Gotham City. Using the extreme methods they now permitted themselves, the Lords were able to bring the world under control, eliminating most crime from the planet.[1]
Once the Justice Lords had established order to their world, Batman spent much of his time working on other projects. He eventually created an interdimensional transport device that allowed him to view universes parallel to his own. The first one he found was the universe of the Justice League, where they continued to battle Lex Luthor, the Flash was still alive, and they did not impose harsh rule to instill order. He showed his findings to the other Justice Lords, and assisted in planning to transfer their brand of peace and order to the Justice League's universe.[1]
After J'onn J'onzz led the Justice League into the Justice Lords' world and the Lords crossed over to the Justice League's universe, Batman stayed behind to keep order and to hold the Justice League prisoner, including his own counterpart. Batman also kept a close eye on the Flash, and tried to justify his and his fellow Lords' actions, much to the younger hero's disgust. When Flash sped his heartrate up to mimic it flatlining, Batman fell for the ruse and was subsequently trapped in the Flash's place.[1]
Shortly after the Justice League escaped, Justice Lord Batman engaged his counterpart in a fight in the Batcave. He taunted his Justice League counterpart, pointing out that his methods had made "a world where no eight-year-old boy will ever lose his parents because of some punk with a gun."[1] The Justice League's Batman backed down, and accompanied Justice Lord Batman on a tour of a cleaner Gotham City. After witnessing the swift reaction of the police to a man arguing over his food bill, the League's Batman sarcastically commented that their parents would have loved what their son had done.[1]
After some further convincing, Justice Lord Batman helped the Justice League to return to their universe to stop the other Justice Lords.
[edit] Brainiac Construct
Near the end of the Cadmus Crisis, Brainiac created an artificial construct of Justice Lord Batman to combat the Justice League. He was defeated by the Justice League's Batman, the second construct to be destroyed. [2]
