[edit] History
A professional efficiency expert, Temple Fugate was advised to deviate from his schedule for once in his life by future Gotham mayor, Hamilton Hill, only to have an unfortunate accident delay his arrival to an important court date and cause his financial ruin. Swearing revenge because he believed Hill had done it on purpose, Fugate returned years later, causing havoc and running afoul of the Batman.
Fugate, dubbed "The Clock King", used his knowledge of all-things time to evade capture, and returned years later with time controlling devices at his disposal in a plot to kill Hill. The Clock King was captured by Batman and Robin this time. He later returned in the guise of a butler and assistant named Harold to a reclusive scientist was studying time manipulation. This gave Fugate the opportunity to steal prototype time manipulation technology which allowed him to maneuver untouched in Gotham until Batman stopped him.
He was later enlisted by Task Force X for his organizational skills when they snuck into the Justice League Watchtower. Specifically, he designed much of the overall mechanics of the actual plan including the timetable of events, which included the compromise of some extra time allotted in the schedule to allow the agents some flexibility. In this role, he also acted as sort of a mission controller; providing status updates and guiding agents in the field in which he operated with his usual rigid efficiency. When last seen Fugate was still a member of Task Force X.
[edit] The Batman Adventures
The Clock King appeared in several issues of the second volume of The Batman Adventures comics, where it was revealed that he rigged the Gotham mayoral election which ousted Hill and elected the Penguin into office.
